I’m glad IBCK is criticizing bad research on the left instead of being overly partisan.
Now, it is absolutely reasonable to focus on the right, since their slop production rate is standard deviations above the left, but it is still nice to see.
Do these people know why Anthropic was formed?
I'm not a Scott defender but that incident was insane. He was sharing some cute parenting stories and his right-wing fans started screaming at him about slave morality.
You know Kelce predicted all this.
In the meantime, please read this excellent article by @philosophybear.bsky.social

I predict we are only right now seeing 10% of the force that will be unleashed when a famous person talks about having POCD.
This paper actually does the work with intellectual history and drawing clear connections, it's much more in-depth than pointing the the vague direction of poststructuralism and saying "this sounds like anti vaccination."
I would also like to add this paper

(Ice wall is a reference to flat earth, which is at odds with hollow earth)
>Ice wall
>Inner earth
At least these people used to be vaguely coherent.
What is the stuff in question?
I assume you mean after the semicolon?
Yeah that's odd, but it doesn't give me any more information than "the elites are in kahoots with each other," which I already basically assumed. I don't think this is some kind of proof of the Rothchild funded poorhouse conspiracy theory though, Epstein is just talking nonsense here.
Yeah I'm pretty sure he's pulling shit out of his ass. Assuming he's talking about the "Epstein" side of the family, his dad was a groundskeeper and his grandfather was a nobody from Belarus.
I'm going to be honest, I can barely decipher what that first email is saying.
I found this, no real bombshells though.

Did you find what this was in response to?
Hey, my name is in the Epstein files! I've told the story before, but should probably re-up.
TLDR: never met the guy, never took (or asked for) any money from him, never visited the island. I was invited to the island, and said no.
It's not that hard to just say no.
People keep saying Adam Tooze is prolific, but he’s nothing compared to Michael Mann, a climate scientist who wrote a very influential series of books on power sources and directed a great film about heat.
The vegan equivalent to this is cans of beans. I have eaten three cans of beans in the past week.
For those OOTL, these are the guys who invented "MAGA Communism"
Haz's neolarouchist cult can hardly be called "Socialist," to be fair.
Swear to God I would not be surprised if some literal telegrams turn up in which a time-traveling Epstein is wiring Thomas Midgley, Jr. about HV U CNSIDRD ADDING LED TO GAS STOP ALSO= BEEN THNKNG ABT COOLING TLK ABT ITNEXT TIME I SEE U STOP
Don't post this here man, it might happen again.
Who wants to bet Epstein thought Pale Fire was a book about an exiled monarch.
I just realized this was supposed to be about like spiritual stuff, I thought it was asking me to affirm the validity of a posteriori knowledge 😭
The CIA is currently planning to launch a color revolution against God and replace him with a pro-western leader. Stay informed, comrades.
This really needs some kind of slider rather than a binary. My answer to the right question is highly contextual.
Rationalist Civil war incoming soon?
