I think Ayn Rand and Heinlein both make the point that totalitarian systems don't filter out compromised people, rather they insist that everyone in the power structure be compromised, precisely so that they can be disposed of when it becomes convenient.

A significant fraction of the population spends most of its free time looking for socially safe targets that it can abuse, terrorize, rob, rape and murder while feeling like a good person. Moskovitz and Yudkowsky served up AI to these people. Great job, very moral.

@Green_Paraclete Most people in the "caring professions" are nobodies looking for a quick fix of validation by being seen to help the victimized and the lesser. If you as the cared-for violate that schema they take it as almost a narcissistic injury and they make up reasons to persecute you.

I think most schoolteachers are poor quality people. They're stressed because they can't organize themselves properly. They probably have never studied correctly in their lives. They couldn't hack it and now lord over children and take their dissatifaction out on them. See, I couldn't hack it, but I want to make it so that the children I care for can hack it. Isn't that the point of being a teacher? We should strive to lessen the burden that students may carry in the future.

My third grade teacher told my parents to put me on Ritalin because I was bored out of my mind in her class. My mom told her to get her hormones checked. Your children’s school teachers WILL discriminate against them for not being a girl.

Laziness is not just low conscientiousness or high impatience. It is the residual reluctance to act even when the future payoff is clear and worth having. It’s time we treated effort aversion as a metric rather than a moral failing: davidepiffer.com/p/psychologys-…

@DavidePiffer (also people have called autism and intellect high reward sensitivity but i can't work that into this framework)

@DavidePiffer Also extroversion/openness/conscientiousness are about doing tasks and the mechanisms that cause perfectionism are related to trait c.

BREAKING: Just one day after an underpaid worker set a warehouse on fire in Ontario, California, another man tried to set the Ontario Mills Mall on fire. This is what happens to a capitalist society that allows the rich to hoard everything as the masses struggle just to survive.
