      ok so the main evolutionary hack of religions is that theyre unfalsifiable and exclusively authoritative right so you can imagine what happens in an environmental niche that suddenly goes unfilled

          i’d go a step beyond and say with mary douglas that it’s just an application of the universal clean/unclean distinction. for basically all traditional societies, the outgroup is unclean.pic.twitter.com/3Eal0PQJ5E

          point being, i don’t believe that people are truly tabula rasa. clean/unclean is innate along with other things.

          One thing that seems to keep cropping up is that this Woke/Social Justice/Progressive movement dramatically draws its ranks from the mainline Protestant denominations. Evangelicals & Catholics, even those who no longer practice, don't seem to be drawn in near as much.

          this "social justice is christianity" stuff feels really similar to the "LessWrong AI theory is christianity" stuff I'm thinking there are two explanations a) comparing things to christianity is a fun dunk b) christianification is the memetic equivalent of carcinization

          i dont know that christianity is really apt here, it seems to be missing a bunch of aesthetics, morals, and theological modes

          i've always seen it more as "lots of people are used to being guided by religion, or raised by people who were, so they treat other guides as though they're religion too". the new thing isn't a religion though, we just don't overwrite white matter as quickly as the link implies.

          also fwiw when someone begins with "there are three types of people" i automatically categorize the rest of what they have to say as "this person is communicating a belief they hold which is wrong".
