The Robin Hanson pile-on should be a teachable moment for all of us here in the intellectual periphery who watch from the sidelines. If you fail to pick up on the narrative cues that something has been anathematized then you will face the mob if you speak of it off-narrative.

I believe that Hanson is viewing the pile-on as evidence that the thread he’s pulling at is particularly important/interesting, so its ultimate effect is probably not entirely negative.

I agree that it's an important topic. The actually important things to talk about are exactly what generates the most censorious pressure.
