      the barely-concealed eugenicist Charles Murray shit is solidly 1/2 of why I yote myself out of mainstream rationalism; it became obvious that he was /not/ actually rigorously and consistently applying the vaunted standards of truth to everything equally

      you can engage with IQ studies meaningfully! and engaging with IQ studies meaningfully, rather than going in KNOWING that you want to come out supporting a contrarian hot take for the sake of having a contrarian hot take to use as a rhetorical point, leads to realising it's shit

      beware the man of one study! also beware the man who engages w/ a difficult idea w/o also engaging in good faith with criticism of that idea; nothing that contingent is going to be trivially Right or Wrong; if you constantly just HAPPEN to find that it's Right, over and over...

      ...then that's evidence to -me- that you've already chosen your side, which is /extra/ irritating b/c of the stance you claim to have taken going in that you're going to be highmindedly neutral and go where the facts lead you

      if I claim that I have gone where the facts lead me, and my interlocutor claims that they have gone where the facts lead them, and we wind up on opposing sides, then either one of us is wrong about the facts or the situation is more complex than either of our models allow.

      This is fundamentally where the Rationalists fall down. We all believe what we believe largely for social reasons. A Professional with serious training in X can -- sometimes -- believe things within the envelope of X for truly Rational reasons. 1/

      Outside that special case, it's basically all withcraft, voodoo, and some mishmash of shit our Dad believed and shit our Friends believe. ERGO: if you present a rational argument for whatever you believe, it isn't rational, it's rationalizing, because you already believed it. 2/

      (TBH I think did OK, but it is absolutely 100% true that my *belief* in SSC's shittiness stems not from some clever argument, but because I smelled it, and it smelled like dogshit, so I think it's dogshit)
