What gets me is the poor judgement of so many people who became victims of the greatest blackmailer in history. Steven Pinker proved himself completely devoid of real guile but he is still publishing books about human nature.

Is Pinker high in dark traits?
(People are also upset abt PG & his wife doubling down on sama. Ofc I don't know much about these guys apart from hearsay, but the "public" rage is similar. Dark traits are associated with agency, the "elites" just happen to rationalize this bellyfeel better?)
Purely also based on bellyfeel, there's something crucial here that I need to figure out
Related to informal rules/institutions: these might be ways to filter out high Ds ..
Building a framework to understanding false negatives/false positives with respect to different systems of rules would be the goal. Social proof is one such,surely there is some better tradeoff?

> His public statements, urging the MAGA faithful to move on from Epstein, come across as an attempt to shut down discussion rather than encourage transparency.
That's all he can do. Just hope people forget or grow bored of nothing changing. How do you have your AG say there are thousands of hours of CSAM video and then not follow that up with, "... and here are the indictments".
