Hi. LessWrong purports to be about decision theory, cognitive psychology, behavioral economics, and a whole hell of a lot of Bayesian statistics. It also purports to have a policy that “Politics is the Mind-Killer”.
Since this post does not belong to any of the normal LW topics, and appears very very angry in a distinctly mind-killy way, I’m downvoting it.
It would perhaps be considered appropriate content on Rationalist Tumblr or /r/slatestarcodex. Enjoy your flame-war—somewhere else.
