I’m fairly confident that we’re (roughly) understanding each other, but have some underlying differences on a combination of a) how the world currently is, b) how the LW world is right now, c) what’s desireable and achievable for LW culture.
(Actually I think we probably agree on how the world in general is).
I think that’s beyond the scope of the conversation I want to have on this post though.
Fair enough, and I tentatively agree with your evaluation.
I do think that this broader conversation is important to have at some point (though, indeed, this post is not the place for it)—because whether this (or, indeed, any other) scheme succeeds, depends on its outcome.
Agreed. For now, I just want to be clear that I think the tactic outlined in this post only makes sense if you’re using the overall strategy listed in this parent comment, and I think whether that strategy makes sense depends on whatever your current situation is.
