      But why is it always Bayes?

      Like is it just an excuse to turn off critical thinking by pretending everything’s a probability problem with knowable probabilities?

      … sorry for the uncertainty above, that was certainly (heh) very human of me. I just updated my priors beep boop. There is a .86748 probability that this is a significant contributing factor alongside Yud swooning.

        They use Bayes to launder their feels.

        I think you’ve got it right. It’s a convenient tool for rationalising ideas that they don’t want to sound irrational, without having to do the requisite critical thinking.
