Lack of engagement with the established members is definitely a big barrier encountered by newcomers..
If you ask this newcomer, the problem is the arrogant obnoxiousness of the engagment.
I was informed that I needed to “learn rationality” (after 30 years of studying science, logic, philosophy etc) and that this provided a “solution to free will” (which turned
out to be a mediocre piece of speculation).
If you want to promote yourselves as
an Ayn Rand style cult, you are going just the right way.
