    Moloch — LessWrong

    Moloch is the personification of the forces that coerce competing individuals to take actions which, although locally optimal, ultimately lead to situations where everyone is worse off. Moreover, no individual is able to unilaterally break out of the dynamic. The situation is a bad Nash equilibrium. A trap. It happens when "In some competition optimizing for X, the opportunity arises to throw some other value under the bus for improved X. Those who take it prosper. Those who don’t take it die out. Eventually, everyone’s relative status is about the same as before, but everyone’s absolute status is worse than before. The process continues until all other values that can be traded off have been – in other words, until human ingenuity cannot possibly figure out a way to make things any worse." - Scott Alexander One example of a Molochian dynamic is a Red Queen race between scientists who must continually spend more time writing grant applications just to keep up with their peers doing the same. Through unavoidable competition, they have all lost time while not ending up with any more grant money. And any scientist who unilaterally tried to not engage in the competition would soon be replaced by one who still does. If they all promised to cap their grant writing time, everyone would face an incentive to defect. The topic of Moloch receives a formal treatment in the sequence Inadequate Equilibria, particularly in the chapter Moloch's Toolbox. Origin Scott Alexander  linked the name to the concept in his eponymous post, Meditations on Moloch.  The post intersperses lines of Allan Ginsberg's poem, Howl, with multiples examples of the dynamic including: the Prisoner's Dilemma, dollar auctions, fish farming story, Malthusian trap, capitalism, two-income trap, agriculture, arms races, races to the bottom, education system, science, and government corruption and corporate welfare. From Allan Ginsberg's Howl: > What sphinx of cement and aluminum bashed open their skulls

    "Your logo is the Star of Remphan" is one of the most common comments I've gotten over the years. In this lesson I take a deep look into the true origin of the SHIELD of David.

    CERN discovers 'satanic human sacrifice' taking place in Large Hadron Collider grounds

    A SATANIC human sacrifice has been staged in the grounds of the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (Cern), the home of the Large Hadron Collider.

    When caught, they simply said “oh it’s a silly little prank!” Much like how they explain away Bohemian grove, where they were literally burning effigies to Moloch


    Worth noting that April 23, 2022 they turned CERN back on, which was the first time in over 100 years Saturn, Mars, Venus and Jupiter form a straight line behind the moon....is the CERN Hadron collider a tool by the elites trying to open a portal?
