      7/ I've seen similarly overreaching criticisms of "academia". There is still a great deal of good work done there. The best insights are in old books. We're mostly amateurs here. (why do my favourite well-known and postrat-friendly authors never get mentioned?)

      8/ This wouldn't be as much of a problem if postrat insight porn didn't bump against delicate philosophical issues so frequently. The number of situations and angles is very broad, allowing for lots of postrat play, but the truth is still very narrow and tight.

      9/ I guess I think there are a lot of habits to unlearn and assumptions to excise from being a rationalist. Postrationality is not a stage, it is an event of losing faith. Once out, there is still a great deal of incremental growth in overcoming one's personal rationalisms.

      10/ What I think alienates me from you guys is I think the truth is very narrow and tight, philosophy is particularly a very delicate subject yet constitutes the most important problems facing us. This necessitates carefulness, rigour and depth on top of exploration and play

      11/ Why is philosophy delicate? For one, it is very interconnected and interdependent. Metaphysics depends on ethics, and ethics depends on metaphysics. Both depend on epistemology and vice versa. Philosophies *of* then depend on these.

      12/ The main issue then is that if you get metaphysics wrong, not just that you're in a state of ignorance, this can block you from seeing ethics and render you incapable of doing it in a way that ignorance does not. Falsity veils, and ignorance is often cured by just looking

      13/ If the human body is a sack of atoms configured via natural selection, then you might view the ethical landscape as one of liberating ones self and humanity from evolution's "teleology". Neurotransmitters might become the seat of the good.

      14/ Maybe in the way rationalists are wrong about the role of models and theory, and this calls for a careful reexamination of their nature, how and when to use them and how and when they go wrong, there is a similar way to go wrong in postrat "just trying out frames" and play.

      15/ What goes wrong if you spend all your time playing with ideas and trying out frames, creating and reading insight porn, making crazy models?

      16/ I like you guys and I think a lot of you do good things. Even though I know like 2 of you IRL, there are ways in which I feel closer to you than my IRL friends. But I still feel alienated, as if none of you feel confronted with the same issues I am. welp

      I think one issue is that I'm not sure (m?)any of us are actually trying to solve problems, and perhaps it sounds like you are? I can understand how this would be frustrating for sure
