You Speak much truth.
It is really a gross failure if LW that we do not allow the elephant to be discussed. No matter how evil one thinks it is, surely it is worth analyzing thoroughly just as an example of successful instrumental rationality.

“even venues like LW are appalled at the idea that these aspects of human life—which are in our society treated with an extreme level of both idealization and ideologization—can be analyzed in such an undignified and desecrating but nevertheless correct way.”
which begs the question: what is LW for if not for being rational and confronting the truth?
