I'm surprised it took this long. Scott was unchangeable, unless he canceled himself. And, that's exactly what he's been manipulated into doing here. If I had the right sort of money and time, I'd order enough copies of Unsong to blockade the entrances of the NYT.

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.

Yeah dude who pushes "race science" is a total rationalist.

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?

You're getting pretty emotional about this. Try some nootropics or something.

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.
