But many others like immutability maximalism, the French Revolution, Marxist-Leninism in some varieties etc.

More later but these are very good defenses against what I would call "social philosophy DAO hacking" where smart but overly logical people are led down horrific directions by following logical implications without reflecting sufficiently on premises. NRx most horrific case...

Reading I was recommending to @ananyachdh and @VitalikButerin to balance out people with primarily a analytic philosophy/logic/math/econ/weenie supremicist background/worldview. Thought might be of broader interest:

Really excited that @VitalikButerin will be joining me for our first ever appearance together on stage this afternoon @rotmanschool

I am so glad to FINALLY see economic theory opening up at least a bit. @aislinnbohren is an inspiration and a real source of hope for a better future in the profession.https://twitter.com/alexoimas/status/1062130285981171718 …

So excited to see the first self-identified #RadicalxChange group get going! Hopefully soon we will have the capacity to make these efforts official!https://twitter.com/RxcSeattle/status/1062105783108722689 …

Seems like the culture wars are just as much a bundle of contradictions as is economic policy. I hope the work @knoray23 and I are doing together can start to cut through it all a bit like #RadicalMarkets did on the economic side.

Perhaps even more paradoxically, the leftist elite style is heavily parasitic on the work of the right because, as @AnandWrites and @robreich highlight, the leftist esteem strategy of elites would fail of the right hadn't already legitimized their claims to wealth to begin with.

While more conservative types, even within these groups, seek to conform to those standards to gain esteem.

But it only gets more complicated from there, because of course regarding non-elite discourse and even some important elements of elite discourse, the left also wants to destabilize the esteem given, for example, to cis-, hetero- and white life styles...

But the reverse is roughly true regarding more "social" sources of esteem: wealthy lefties give away their money to "worthy" causes to be admired, while those on the right use their money to delegitimize the social scheme that accords respect based on giving to such causes.
