For what it’s worth I would love if LessWrong stuck to only decision theory, microeconomics, cognitive science, …
So, now that you know the reason why your post was removed, do you agree with the decision? It seems that you’re generally in favor of removing “stupid shit that gets upvoted”. (And your post wouldn’t even have been needed to be removed if you had hosted it at fanfiction.net and posted the link in an open thread.)
This isn’t the should-world. LessWrong is irrevocably a cesspit. The stupid shit will continue to flow. So no, I do not agree with the decision, unless someone like Vladimir_Nesov gets to ban all the stupid shit, which will never happen. Arbitrarily banning my stupid shit in particular just means Eliezer making a fool of himself. There is no sympathetic magic to it that will change the equilibrium.
