Uh, have you ever actually read Slate Star Codex? This strikes me as a singularly bizarre interpretation of his writing. What, exactly, led you to this conclusion?I'd be concerned for anyone that took anything they read there too seriously, as it seems like a precursor to nasty places like theredpill subreddit.

Maybe, and while I think that's something to look at, it's far from definitive. I mean, Odder refers to SSC as "reactionary," despite one of SSC's longest posts being an anti-reactionary FAQ.
