Cheap you blog…

I actually started reading your site in an attempt to expose myself to views that wouldn’t just confirm my moderate-liberal opinions. I’ve felt myself drifting more toward libertarianism through you and the IHS seminar that I attended in Philadelphia, among others.

It infuriates me when people seem so comfortably smug in their ideology that I’ve wanted to avoid falling for the same routine. Unfortunately, it seems like a bit of a free-rider problem; dogmatic reactionists have no incentive to change their ways as long as they’re supported by like-minded individuals.

given that cognitive bias operates on a subcognitive/unconscious emotional level it seems a bit of a tall order to try and consciously ‘price in’ the distortion, though I do try to do so myself. it seems necessary but inadequate.

it also seems much worse for libertarians to consider their own values, convictions, and ideas equally subject to cognitive bias and other bounded-rational heuristics given the emphasis on pragmatic reason and objectivity in the literature. it questions the very core of the libertarian worldview (if there is one).

Chris wrote that we might be motivated to seek the true conclusions rather than those that appeal to our priors, but where the normative and subjective are concerned I wonder whether there are such conclusions.
