|content=The best relative value trade in human beings:
[[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|Long: Good]].</br>
[[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|Short: Nice]].
Grouchy, grumpy, curmudgeonly, hard asses are always undervalued.

|content=Three thoughts on 9/11:
Do not believe in something if it asks you to sacrifice everything.
If you are truly [[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|long heroism]],
you must also be [[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|short martyrdom]].
Never let a tiny number of deranged  dogmatic lunatics convince you that you’ll be better off cooperating with them.

|content=People are always confused: “I don’t get it, are you for or against. You are on a fence. Don’t BothSides this dude!”
Good luck with that. I’m:
[[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|Long: America and its institutions.]]
[[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|Short: The Fringes and the kleptocratic gerontocracy leading us off a Cliff.]]

|content=We have an auto immune disease. An essential part of us is attacking us. You can’t “Burn It all the F down” even if tempted with your commandeered institutions.
My goal is to try to save the institutions while trying to dislodge the hijackers in their 70s & 80s.

|content=@Mangocorona No. Or at least they weren’t very recently. A professor had the salary of a dentist but the intellectual freedom of a billionaire until recently. If we could restore that we wouldn’t need much [[FU Money|FU money]]. But now we do. Because
we blew it on witch-hunting independent thinkers etc.

|content=High Trust and Dependence
Vs
Low Trust and Independence
with respect to institutional leadership, is the best replacement for our old “Left vs Right” political spectrum that I have found.
Try it for yourself. I found it to be surprisingly efficient.

|content=In particular, it explains my own politics. I am [[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|short the leadership and current experts within our institutions]] but “against burning them all the F down”. Thus the traditional Right &amp; I agree on part of our current crisis, but this identifies why I’m not a natural conservative.

|content=I don’t trust @twitter leadership which throttles my account. I don’t trust universities Coked up on DEI zealotry which wants me to give loyalty oaths. I don’t trust Fauci who lies to us. I don’t trust that @EcoHealthNYC hasn’t been taken over by our military. Etc.

|content=But I also know our history. And it wasn’t always like this. Not everyone who has a glass of Chardonnay ends up two weeks later sleeping in the gutter. And I am not having it that all liberalism automatically tends to illiberalism.
So I’m [[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|long institutions]], [[Long-short positions (nuanced positions)|short their new evil]].

|content=In particular I don’t trust News Services, Universities, Political Parties, Government agencies, that won’t celebrate and hire top heterodox iconoclasts. If you won’t protect Noam Chomsky or Serge Lang in their fields despite their politics, what even are you as a university?

|content=So to sum it up, I don’t want institutions run by midwits w/ credentials that want to micromanage our reality. But “Burn it all the F Down!” Only works if it’s restricted to [[Managed Reality TM|managed reality]].
I’m low trust for current leaders/ experts. But open to the hard work of rebuilt trust..

|content=@EricRWeinstein I assume you also not a big fan of academia anymore?  I left my 20 year stint as Oxford professor a year ago, fearful at the time, now just confused why I didn’t do that earlier.
