I wandered over somehow from RationalWiki, which I had known of since the science-blogging days of yore, and found it more congenial to my tastes than other subreddits. E.g., it was friendlier to excursions into the wonky and erudite than r/badphilosophy, and generally had a justifiably low tolerance for superficial politeness while maintaining a level of empathy for serious matters.

    @dgerard We need to yank Dilbert Stark's driving license and chauffeur and force him to travel everywhere on an e-bike or sailboat for a year or two before he's allowed to have anything to do with Tesla again. (Or to use his private jet.)

    Actually, Dilbert getting e-bike religion might be the best thing he could possibly do for the climate …
