@mxchara@cyberpunk.lol just wanted to say I am loving reading this. I did read and enjoy Methods of Rationality. I think the emptyness of Harry Potter *was* the perfect pot to fill with any other topic, and a rebellion against its illogic and its plot holes seemed delightful. Like many smart folks his philosophy has good points and weaknesses. I haven't tried to debate him on it though; my own philosophies have always been an evolving beast.
