Why was this voted up to +4? Y'all are way too scared of being labeled cultish if you're voting this stuff up.

I really wish there was some way to teach arrogance. It seems to be such a large factor in whether people actually make progress as rationalists or not.

One symptom from the linked definition of groupthink:

Exercising direct pressure on others

Seriously though man, you're the one that has the overwhelming karma lead around here. Seems a little petty to police 4 dissenting votes.
