Fair question. But compare it to startups. Or “People who will be successful making a career in music.” Or “Actors who should continue to wait tables.” I am an enormous critic of academic research. But high-end research has been *phenomenally* high quality until fairly recently. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the age of the Knarc. I want you to remember this when I tell you things supported nowhere by the mainstream: to a Knarc, every dissenter is a crank. Peer review, awards, credentials, etc don’t behave positively during a universal institutional intellectual collapse. 🙏 — PolitiTweet.org

“If it is not discrimination and oppression, how do you explain the wild inequality of different groups?” “Why should we give different life advice to boys and girls, particularly with respect to dating and romance?” “Why should the state be involved in certifying marriage?” — PolitiTweet.org

“Why is the group you assembled not more diverse?” “Why do you care what your adult children do so long as they are happy?” “Why do we want to keep out any good people who want to immigrate to our country?” “Why do you want to tell others how they can speak, dress or behave?” — PolitiTweet.org

Pia Malaney’s analysis of the war for the future of the Web: a battle between the armies of Ayn Randian Libertarian Capitalism vs. those led by Laureate Eleanor Ostrom and her vision of a redesigned rational commons. Gotta admit, that was a hook I didn’t see coming. Thoughts? 🙏 — PolitiTweet.org

Why does finding the origin of COVID-19 have *anything* whatsoever to do with political party affiliation? More importantly: how and why have we simply accepted this? Should we make even numbers Democratic, and odd ones Republican? Honest question. It doesn’t make sense to me. — PolitiTweet.org

@KateandPie @LughSpear @ESYudkowsky People are finally hearing him. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
@BanklessHQ Maybe. How might I help your listeners? — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
@LughSpear @ESYudkowsky Exactly. Let’s get neurodivergent interviewers for neurodivergent subjects with something to say. Let’s not burn it all on “Don’t you think that is a bit gloomy?” Or “Aren’t you being arrogant?” or “Ok. But back in the real world…” It’s so stupidly embarrassing for everyone. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
What I don’t enjoy is one neurotypical person interviewing a neurodivergent person like @ESYudkowsky. They are so unused to the behavior patterns, that the whole interview can become “Wait! Did I hear you right?!?” Which is not what we need. It’s a bad use of very smart folks. 🙏 — PolitiTweet.org

I will say one thing. I don’t understand how anyone is *simply* optimistic, except as a coping/profit strategy. I see the possibility of optimism…but it is a long shot. This is going to destabilize the world’s current economic system on a crowded planet with a lot of crazy toys. — PolitiTweet.org

AI Doom: I would like to see super smart people like @pmarca and @ESYudkowsky going at this AI issue with @sama and others giving color commentary. I personally don’t understand either @pmarca or @ESYudkowsky’s positions yet enough to know whether I agree or disagree with them. https://t.co/qTokGpSwFs — PolitiTweet.org

Q: If the cosmos beyond our solar system were found to be traversable, how would it change your life, your bucket list, your ideas about the threats to earth and your view of humanity in the Universe? All I ask is that you take a moment before answering. That’s it. Thanks. https://t.co/FqiIh64rQ8 — PolitiTweet.org

@JaredBoone12 I’m sure there are voices at State and within the IC that are worried about nukes. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Weinstein @EricRWeinstein
Putin has *never* used nukes (or other unconventional WMD weapons) in war before. In my estimation, that’s very important to remember when trying to figure out to whom we now should turn for our analyses. As per the above. #MSM — PolitiTweet.org

We had no experience in having 4 planes simultaneously highjacked by suicidal jihadis. So it wasn’t worth worrying about. We hadn’t had a worldwide pandemic w/ lockdowns for ages so it wasn’t going to happen. We banished volatility in the Great Moderation so that wasn’t a risk. — PolitiTweet.org

For those who still believe in peer review and scientific consensus, ask yourself why someone like the great particle theorist Steven Weinberg (1933-2021) understood Corona Virus GoF risk enough to issue such a strong statement in support of @EcoHealthNYC: https://t.co/vKxEipkhyL — PolitiTweet.org
