Why did Scott Alexander Siskind *really* nuke Slate Star Codex? Does the New York Times care more about truth than the rationalist community? Are these rhetorical questions actually answered in my latest at Model Citizen?https://modelcitizen.substack.com/p/grey-lady-steel-man …

But obviously it's NOT just that, like Murray is outspokenly against affirmative action for middle-class Black people because he doesn't think underrepresentation in elite institutions is due to bias but due to Black people just not being as smart as their white colleagues
-
Sure but just because Murray has a view doesn’t make that attributable to Scott based on them agreeing about UBI.

Yeah, and this is *really vile*. He is literally saying right out loud that he thinks a large group of people are *completely ineducable*.

Most frustrating thing to me about these views is they're so driven by expedience. He's not seeking the means to fix things 200 years from now. He's seeking a policy that means Scott no longer has to care about it. It is to social welfare what Soylent is to food.

Right, it's not socialism or anywhere on a continuum with socialism It's noblesse oblige Sighing, taking out the checkbook, "How much exactly is it gonna take for you poors to leave me alone"
