Another month has passed and here is a new rationality quotes thread. The usual rules are:

Please post all quotes separately, so that they can be upvoted or downvoted separately. (If they are strongly related, reply to your own comments. If strongly ordered, then go ahead and post them together.)
Do not quote yourself.
Do not quote from Less Wrong itself, HPMoR, Eliezer Yudkowsky, or Robin Hanson. If you'd like to revive an old quote from one of those sources, please do so here.
No more than 5 quotes per person per monthly thread, please.

political conditioning has caused me to assume that any non-specialist saying "don't trust models, just 'look at the data'," is the victim of some sort of anti-epistemology.

I would argue that it is this political conditioning itself that is the anti-epistemology.

I don't suppose you could contribute substance rather than just accusation?
