      It’s not hypocrisy. Hypocrisy would be “Scott is bad and deserves to be punished because of his history with nrx.” Instead it’s “Scott likely didn’t want this stuff given NYT levels of attention.” Will is quite frank about how deeply involved in LW/nrx he used to be.

      The piece 1.) rejects Scott’s argument for a right to pseudonymity on the grounds that we need to be able to punish people for bad thoughts , 2.) then links to a leaked email showing him to be a secret bearer of bad thoughts

      While he refers to being a part of the libertarian world that included NrX on its margins, he does not anywhere in the piece say "I thought race realism was worth engaging seriously"; he instead presents Scott's private view that it was as a gotcha

      You’re totally misreading this piece. The title and numerous parts of the text make it clear that this is asking Scott to steelman Metz’s perspective, not an attempt at a “gotcha.”

      There's that but there's also "here's a link to leaked emails proving that Scott has bad thoughts."

      You can of course ask @willwilkinson for himself, I’m pretty sure he will tell you the point wasn’t that Scott had “wrong thoughts” and therefore deserved punishment

      Replying to @adamgurri @willwilkinson

      The point was to say the NYT is great, and these dorks and losers who pretend to be rational but are cool with fascism don't understand how journalism works.

      Along the way, he links to a gotcha in pursuit of another point; I never said it was his overarching purpose in the piece, just that it's a thing he does while eliding that he himself publicly posted the same view

      It’s not remotely the same view. This was a @conor64 or @robbysoave style “in the liberal marketplace of ideas you should respectfully engage even ideas with which you strongly agree” statement, which is faaaaar from “HBD is more right than wrong.” Will await your correction.
