alexey comments on What fact that you know is true but most people aren’t ready to accept it?

[alexey]

is obviously different than what you said, though

To me it doesn’t seem to be? “condoned by social consensus” == “isn’t broadly condemned by their community” in the original comment. And

because the “social consensus” is something designed by people, in many cases with the explicit goal of including circles wider than “them and their friends”

doesn’t seem to work unless you believe a majority of people are both actively designing the “social consensus” and have this goal; majority of people who design the consensus having this as a goal is not sufficient.
