Welcome to the world.
Don’t confuse preference with prediction.
Sanity is not always valued so highly here as you might be used to.
Where else have I been where sanity is valued more highly and how do I get back to it?
I see my joke fell flat.
In the world at large, sanity is valued much less than it is here at lesswrong. Absurd as it sounds, many people would value righteous indignation above rational debate, or even above positive results.
See the recent discussion on jokes with Rain. The joke implication missed.

I almost wish that did sound absurd.
