I had no idea who Scott Alexander is, but if at least a few of the things written in https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Scott_Alexander … are actually true -- including his apparent enthusiastic support for James Damore's memo -- I am VERY confused by why he is so well-regarded by people around me.

Scott himself talks a lot about this, while refusing to apply it to himself

Seriously, ask yourself just why Scott applies *so much* charity specifically to neoreactionaries, scientific racism, and the like while withholding it from, say, Marxism

If his thing is going after things he finds 'unsatisfying' that's not objective inquiry, that's substituting aesthetics for rigor.
