  The fictional set is as good place to look in as any, yes, but it is small.

  Yes: Humans think in stories but there are far far more concepts that do not make good story than do make it.

  What can we do about reactions like this?

  You have put marketing considerations above the rational search for the truth. I do not think you would have done the same thing when you were considering atheism: “will this true belief make me less marketable?” And you should not do it now.

  We must stay and fight. The accusers of racism are the true racists: they think by ignoring the differences the differences will go away, but to ignore the differences is fake egalitarianism that makes the less capable worse off then they would be if we acknowledged the differences and we could allow for them.

  I like your posts here.

  Differences between groups is obvious to any rational person I think. I cannot see how it can be otherwise. Anyone calling this racist is mind killed.

  Hi! I have read for a while. I read HPMOR and enjoyed the sequences. I prefer not to say where I live.

  It looks as he is just another smart guy who is no wiser outside the laboratory.

  edit: I am wrong and withdraw this comment.
