Anthropic's challenge is that it is a liberal organization (in the broad, good sense) dealing with an illiberal administration. A central feature of liberalism is its belief in the importance of reason in politics. And illiberalism (left or right) is often characterized by a suspicion of reason in politics. Anthropic keeps reasoning with an administration that cares more about domination than reason. And that just makes the administration madder and madder. They don't want an argument; they want submission. Dario won't flatter them, and so he is a target. That's why I defend him and am kind of appalled by some of his critics. He's a hero because he's one of the only people in the country with power who is telling the Trump people no.
