Vladimir, Kant once advised: “free yourself from the self-incurred tutelage of others”.
I think that even if you consider Eliezer’s Fun Theory as a somehow independent ethical construct (whatever that means), you still fail to accommodate for the lack of evidentialism in it. To me it appears as a mash-up of sporadic belief and wishful thinking, and definitely worth considering the ad hominem causality for it.
