I think there should exist a name for the cluster in thingspace that is currently known here as “the rationalist community”. That is my concern. How specifically it will be called, that is less important. We just have to coordinate on using the new name.
Generic “subscribing to branches of Western philosophy descended from Descartes and Kant and Vienna circle” is not exactly the same thing.

LW crowd.
“The rationalist community” sounds way too hoity-toity and pretentious to me.
