The Rationalist Stereotype Survey
@spiderpriestess
Nine and five-sixths.
I don’t think Yudkowsky himself would score that high.
::::|
Okay but let’s be real, this is all just “autism subtype markers”, right?
right????????
Now that you mention it, a lot of this is autism (autistic people are something like five to ten times more likely to be trans, for example), but I still think there’s something else going on, with the 50% depression rate etc. (as I suspect, there might be a specific type of badbrains that psychiatry hasn’t managed to pin down from symptoms but which has a distinct-ish etiology because “trans woman with autism, adhd, depression and/or anxiety” seems to be a very strong type)
Yudkowsky himself would be like 8-9 in my guess (in comparison, the “marxist” stereotype is quite different from what Karl Marx was), but the “yudbot” (affectionately intended) personality has something that makes it very attracted to this community/memeplex that I’d really like to tease out of the data once I start actually crunching the numbers instead of just eyeballing graphs. And it seems to be correlated with really interesting things, especially regarding gender and sexuality.
And I also need to find a control group somewhere, obviously.
