With my writing style, I try to support a norm of writing directly and literally. I avoid adding value signals to convince readers I share their values, and as a reader I require no such signals of writers. https://www.overcomingbias.com/2018/05/skip-value-signals.html …

I agree that this should have never been written in this way. Scott has literally been burning social capital to help. (However, the person that has been dehumanized in the discourse was Robin Hanson, even if it was in response to how he expressed himself.)

Robin is *one* of the people who has been dehumanized. The effect of that conversation for women has also been dehumanizing, though via an unintended externality I’d say. Hence my skepticism of this norm. Sometimes better to be context aware and counterprogram from outset.
