Venkatesh Rao Retweeted Charles Neill 🥴
Oh this response is on to something new. Incuriousness towards self-serving conclusions (motives?) feels like close to the truth here. They often aren't so much actively misrepresenting their motives as not even aware of them.https://twitter.com/ccneill/status/1104473321272418307 …

Replying to @vgr
Ongoing, unconscious incuriousness toward self-serving conclusions and evidence that might contradict + reflexive denial of any other viewpoint?
E.g. "I don't need to read Darwin to know evolution is wrong" - existing belief strong enough to overwhelm any future info; why read?
