Mmm, my intent is not to discourage people from posting views I disagree with, and I don’t think this post will have that effect.
It’s more like, I see a lot of posts that could be improved by grappling more directly with Yudkowskian ideas. To the credit of many of the authors I link, they often do this, though not always as much as I’d like or in ways I think are correct.
The part I find lacking in the discourse is pushback from others, which is what I’m hoping to change. That pushback can’t happen if people don’t make the posts in the first place!
