Liam Bright @lastpositivistI get that culture war symbolism matters so I don't mean to suggest people should therefore just not care. But I think our society is too timid in having first order ethical debate. I don't like it when what are really ethical debates get sublimated into pseudo-empirical dispute.Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -

sanity as social consensus is a useful notion. that's the R.A. Wilson "reality tunnels" idea. I think there are other notions of sanity that can have some instrumental value though. how about this one: freedom from memetic parasites.
