      People outside the Rationalist community might not know it, but Scott Alexander is one of the most universally respected writers working today. Basically a demigod of rationality. If the @nytimes goes after him, it's declared its allegiance to mob irrationality.

          They were going to do a (according to Scott) "mostly positive" take on SSC, when they reveal that they would not honor his request for anonymity. They stated it was policy, but then they've also done two profiles on Banksy without outing him.

          Wait, did you just say "nobody outside a small clique knows this, but Scott Alexander is universally known" because that makes no goddamned sense at all.

          Also, Scott is a *terrible* writer. No, it's not that my tiny pea brain is too small to grasp his greatness, or that I lack the character to read long essays. I read a lot of much more difficult writing than SSC, and I know the difference between logorrhea and profound writing.

          if he isn't well respected outside the "rationalist community" how can he be said to be well respected? i am suspicious of your framing of this.

          Maybe folks would respect them less if they knew he had written in defense of "The Bell Curve", called eugenics programs "Better than what we have now" and argued that essentially no action can be called racist. And that's just one article and it's responses?
