I think this is clearly true, but the application is a bit dubious. There’s a difference between “we have to talk about the bell curve here even though the object-level benefit is very dubious because of the principle that we oppose censorship” and “let’s doxx someone”. I don’t think it’s inconsistent to be on board with the first (which I think a lot of rationalists have proven to be, and which is an example of what you claimed exists) but not the second (which is the application here).
