I really wish there was an “agree/disagree” button for posts. I’d like to upvote this post (for epistemic virtue / presenting reasonable “contrarian” views and explaining why one holds them), but I also strongly disagree with the conclusions and suggested policies. (I ended up voting neither up nor down.)
EDIT: After reading Akash’s comments, and re-reading the post more carefully: I largely agree with Akash (and updated towards thinking that my standards for “epistemic virtue” are/were too low).
Right; that would be a silly thing to think.
My intended message might’ve been better worded as follows
OTOH, you seem exceptionally reflective, so perhaps that worry is completely unfounded in your case. Anyway, I’m grateful for the work you do; I wish there were more people like you in this world. (Also, your attention is extremely valuable, so please feel free to promptly drop/forget this conversation.)
