My default model had been “a large cluster of the people who are able to use their reasoning to actually get involved in the plot of humanity, have overridden many schelling fences and absurdity heuristics and similar, and so are using their reasoning to make momentous choices, and just weren’t strong enough not to get some of it terribly wrong”. Similar to the model from reason as memetic immune disorder.
