Just listened to my friend @SamHarrisOrg w/ @RadioFreeTom.

I was unexpectedly bewildered. Given the right forum, it would be an honor & privilege to steelman the substantive case against experts & their institutions into coastal-friendly PhD-style expert terminology & language.

Eric, given that you know how much I scorn @SamHarrisOrg, why are you putting my handle?

Hi Nassim, With 66 dyadic relationships between 12 individuals there was zero implied pairwise mutual endorsement or respect implied. I’m certainly happy to make that explicit here for the record if that wasn’t clear.
