So when we left off, Ziz had kind of psychologically jailbroken her friend into suicide and then created an info hazard named after her friend.
Yes.
Great stuff.
Healthy community.
Now, a few things happened in quick succession after this point.
The rationalists start to blame Pasek's suicide on Ziz, and this is really when a lot of folks in rationalist circles start breaking off.
And calling, like saying like, hey, this is โ what Ziz and Gwyn are doing, they've made like a cult, right?
And again, I don't think they're really off base here, but also they tend to ignore all of the suicides in the rationalist community, right?
I was going to say they are in a cult.
You know, it's more โ because cult is โ
I think like you get โ like there's a cultic milieu that rationalism forms, which is like the substrate, right?
If a cult is like a plant growing up from it, like rationalism is this soil that is extremely optimized for growing cults.
I think that might be closer.
