The fanatical wing of the rationalist community (LessWrong, effective altruism, etc.), characterized by extreme confidence in their own cognitive methods, aggressive evangelism, and strict purity tests. Rationalist fanatics treat Bayes’ theorem, decision theory, and futurist forecasts as sacred texts. They excommunicate members who question core beliefs (e.g., AI risk, longtermism) and attack outsiders who don’t adopt their jargon. Their fanaticism often manifests in cult‑like dynamics: epistemic arrogance, insularity, and a conviction that they are saving the world from irrational destruction.
