An important quote from Byrne Hobart about the Thinking Things Through Privilege:

"All of this illustrates an important, growing distinction in cultural norms: in a world with an unlimited supply of content and data, you can produce coherent-sounding prose without thinking things through. It's a useful skill in some contexts, like talking about most company mission statements and most political platforms—in both cases, there's usually some amalgamation of principle and opportunistic compromise, but cast entirely as principle. In an information-scarce environment, this approach will mostly mean repeating beliefs that have undergone either individual or group selection—there's individual selection for aphorisms, where a society that believes in "a penny saved, a penny earned" is likely to accumulate more wealth than one that doesn't, and where even factually-challenged beliefs that clearly delineate an ingroup and outgroup serve a coordinating function. But in an information-abundant world, you can find a reasonably coherent version of any belief system, and you can probably also find a Discord server full of people who treat it as the truth."
