Do you have any intuitions about how well this movement is all going to go? Do you think there will be widespread enough support for it to get the policy changed?

Ok, so the question is "how much knowledge is required to make a decision," and your answer is "I don't have enough knowledge to make a decision on that," right? That's meta.

I read your article about five year olds learning calculus a while ago and have been telling my family about it. Little did I know you'd pop up on Reddit!
My nephew is an actual savant. At 6 months old he could read, before he could even talk. Shortly after, he taught himself to browse YouTube on iPad, and now speaks three languages and is learning sign language. He's now 2 and has an extreme photographic memory. He has memorized entire movie scripts verbatim, including some YouTube videos in different languages. We recently discovered he'd started teaching himself sign language from YouTube. We're all blown away.
I've wanted to try teaching him some crazy advanced math thing for a while, but could never figure out the right thing to try or the right way to do it. Do you have any ideas?
I thought maybe he'd be able to figure out some basic abstract algebra, like learning groups of symbols that you can "combine" in various different ways, since he's so good at reading and grammar and etc.

Reddit's popular subreddit /r/theredpill is a community of men who try to game women by being alpha. They're the living embodiment of everything you wrote about in The Game, but have taken it a step further. They've gotten a lot of criticism for being misogynistic and generally being "over the top."
Do you have any advice or words of wisdom for this group?
