We should also convince them of the Most Truest Danger™ of Info-hazards, hermetically sealed is not quite sufficient ^^.

Un peu loin, au Japon.

Don't forget the:

• Vile dose of racist ranting.
• Simultanously complaining about the elite, but then saying it's only because it's been watered down by the plebs.
• Vile understanding of "poetry" as status marker.
• Not going back further in time than 19th century, and extremely suspiciously marking the "height" of peotry between 1920a to mid-1960s, not at all coinciding with the civil rights act.

Not sure about the people who “are or think they are intelligent” being more susceptible to the con.

It feels like something one wishes to be true for karmic/poetic reasons rather than something that actually IS true.

I think good marks for the LLM con are more generally doubtful of the value of human intelligence/labour/education and/or tech positivist rather than true believers in their own intelligence.

The irony of crediting Moldbug with a potent explanation for bad poetry is rather amusing. It's almost a shame that Scott here cops out with a "The margins are too small for my proof", although maybe it is secret mercy.
