I noticed I was confused. The world didn’t make sense to me at this spot. I could guess at some pieces, like “Okay, maybe wokism is actually just really super popular”, but that didn’t account for all the pieces I was observing.
I imagined that Less Wrong would be a good place to ask people about this in a way relatively unlikely to swing into culture war baloney. I just want to understand how the world is shaped.
why is it worth a frontpage on the ai safety forum?
I… have no idea. I didn’t do that. Or if I did it was purely by accident. I wouldn’t have guessed this belonged at all in anything having to do with AI risk, other than it being about modeling the world, which is generically connected to AI risk in an overall kind of way.
Oh! Ha! Okay. Well, I view Less Wrong as the rationality forum of the world, which happens to include a lot of examination of AI safety/risk. If there were a division within LW between “AI” and “not AI”, I totally would have put this in the “not AI” category.
Happy to answer.

“Culture war baloney”
The modern history of the term “culture war” is interesting. I suspect it might make enlightening reading.
