Shortly after market close, I will post a poll on Manifold asking "Do you personally believe that Scott Alexander is a highly unethical person, or otherwise have a strongly negative opinion of him?" Three options:

  • Yes

  • No

  • I don't know enough about him to have a meaningful opinion

I will resolve this market to the fraction of "Yes" responses / "No" responses.

The poll will be limited to one response per manifold account, and will be anonymous.

This is part of a group of markets on Scott Alexander with slightly different resolution criteria, made with the intention of figuring out which structure is best. For an overview and discussion, see here.

I wouldn't expect most users to even know enough about him to have that strong an opinion and even if people voting do, 'highly unethical' and 'strongly negative opinion' is a very high bar.

@SvilenTodorov I'll exclude responses from people who don't know Scott.
