      This is why, for example, they are upset that Clubhouse is voice only—less legibility = harder to regulate.https://twitter.com/CharlesFLehman/status/1359978685613420550 …

      Clubhouse is proof of my thesis that "cancel culture" is mostly a product of the mass transition of our lives to written media https://twitter.com/NiemanLab/status/1359934480417501185 …

      This is also what the tropes about "misinformation" and "extremist views" are really about: the internet permits the dissemination of Unapproved Ideas, and those are part of a larger, if ultimately pointless, effort to erect a cordon saintaire

      The entities that facilitate this effort are enormously powerful, wealthy, and democratically unaccountable. Which is why there's an effort to (perhaps unwittingly) destroy them. https://twitter.com/mims/status/1360584880132915205 …

      incidentally, the "scholar who closely follows and documents the Rationalists" Metz quotes, Elizabeth Sandifer, appears to do most of her work writing about, uh, Doctor Who.https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/17928103.Elizabeth_Sandifer …

      I'm reasonably certain its the same sandifer who wrote a) this blog post http://www.eruditorumpress.com/blog/neoreaction-rationalism-and-eliezer-yudkowsky/ … and b) this book, which was funded on kickstarter and self-published.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2027287602/neoreaction-a-basilisk …

      Nothing against self-published authors, I just don't think the NYT should be going to Doctor Who fanfiction writers for expert comment.

      The subject of the NYT profile, Scott Alexander, consists Eliezer Yudkowsky his intellectual mentor Yudkowsky's most famous (self-)published work is a massive Harry Potter fanfic that also serves as his intellectual manifesto

      If being a "fanfic writer" disqualifies you from being an "expert" this is an indictment of the whole "rationalist" community far more than its critics

      Moreover it kind of makes obvious why it's hard to find someone willing to give "expert" testimony on this community you can't tar with this "What a nerd!" brush

      I am personally certain that someone like Nikole Hannah-Jones could be much more effective at "taking down" Scott than someone like me IF Jones had spent years reading Eliezer and Scott's bullshit on the Internet However, she has had other things to do
