What is the DISC?
DISC stands for: Distributed Idea Suppression Complex
Don’t ask your questions.
Don’t admit you don’t understand.
Don’t question experts.
Don’t listen to heterodoxy.
Don’t associate with iconoclasts.
Don’t befriend the other party.
Don’t criticize your own fringe.
Don’t self-promote.
Don’t be gauche.
Die silently.
-Eric Weinstein
