Referring to
@ESYudkowsky as "Medium Yud" is weak positive evidence of liking him.https://twitter.com/andrastimot/status/1223900435167182848 …Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -

Of course, Tyler mentions the Holocaust in his original post, suggesting that the cause of atrocities is not high state capacity, but high rate of change of state capacity. Which may be so, but the Stable Low Capacity (Bulgaria) seems to fail more gracefully than Stable High...

Came back to this because I'm reading Imre Kertesz, but it's also interesting in light of the recent "state capacity libertarianism". I don't think it's twisting this to see it as at least partially an argument for the less nuanced "hate the state" libertarianism.

It's not a comedy, obviously, but there's a lot of dark humour in the Hungarian Jews' naivete. They've cooperated happily while being transported to Auschwitz, starved for days, divided into fit and unfit, having all their possessions taken, being shaved from head to balls.

The protagonist's father's business is being gradually transferred into the ownership of his "racially pure" deputy, Mr Sütő, to avoid state confiscation. Raises interesting questions about complicity.

In the first chapter, there's an ex-journalist relative whose theory is that the Western Powers desperately want to save the Jews, and there is an assumption that there will be some Grand Bargain. Persecution of the Jews, then, is an attempt by the Nazis to gain leverage.

Finally getting round to reading Imre Kertesz's "Fateless", his semi-autobiographical account of suffering through the Holocaust and one of the Great Hungarian novels.

How on earth anyone thought this was an appropriate arrangement is quite beyond me. "Guy is off at war, terrified he'll die and never see his home and girlfriend again.

1. Do you unironically like Eliezer Yudkowsky? 2. Do you call him "Big Yud" / "Medium Yud"?

He used to be Big Yud. Now he's Medium Yud. Soon he'll be Swole Yud.
