Here's the thing. I keep going back to LW thinking, this time I will find an article that I disagree with, I'm not a blind follower. And every time I end up agreeing with him. I literally can't find anything nontrivial that he says that I disagree with. Yeah, his taste for Harry Potter and shitty fanfiction and so forth is cringe for sure, but that's, like I said, trivial. His stuff on rationality is rock solid redpilled af.

Maybe the problem is that he only seriously endorses things that are trivially true, that any half intelligent person would agree with. The only criticism in this thread so far seems to be that he hasn't accomplished anything besides LW. But every time I find myself agreeing with an LW post, it feels like he's either fleshed out something I already believe, better than I could have done myself, or he's pointed out a fallacy that I didn't even realize before but seems obvious in retrospect. He's very good at writing about rationality, and this seems like an accomplishment in itself.
