Speaking as a moderator, it’s not obvious to me that LessWrong shouldn’t be a place where coordination happens.
It’s scary and I don’t know how to cause it to happen well, but if not here, where? We’d have to build something else (totally an option, but not something anyone has done).
Yeah I think insofar as it’s happened on LessWrong it’s been better than happening on e.g. Facebook or only in-person.
The rough story I am hoping for here is something like “Come for the frontpage object-level content, stay for the frontpage object-level content, but also you’ll likely model / engage with local politics a bit if you stay (which is on personal blog).”
