Look, I really didn’t want to write about this, but here we are.
I’m very upset with Nick Bostrom.
His original email was terrible, racist, and offensive.
His apology was absolutely idiotically executed.
Here I wrote a very personal post where explain why I feel this way.
I’m coming towards very similar views myself. I normally ignore race/gender/sex controversies, but damn did Bostrom bomb the apology hard, and I can’t really defend his apology.
