Ethos policing

The idea that science doesn't work if you're motivated by the wrong ethos is ridiculous.

Hym "And how does that not devolve into ethos policing? Where you do what the religious enterprise does in holding hostage the good afterlife... except shifted down one level of abstraction. And now instead of God holding the good afterlife hostage, you have (Almost not a) Dr. Jordan Peterson and his cronies using boycotting, intellect property theft, media blacklisting, and gaslighting to withhold the good life from political dissidents. And that's the point of doing it. A mad power grab from a desperate charlatan who is CONFLATING HIS WORK with LITERALLY GOD and imposing that on the population. I'm starting think me and Candace have more in common then just wanting to fuck eachother."
