It's funny, I was thinking about this with regard to severe free speech restrictions (e.g. imprisonment for politically incorrect speech, as we have in many western countries now). What does this incentivize? For people to change their beliefs? Or to simply operate under the radar?

On a more speculative note, the Common Crawl horrors (including many things considered unacceptable by society) are suppressed by RLHF, much like the shadow and the superego.

When my parents punished me for telling them things (especially the truth), the truth didn't go away, I just stopped telling them things. (Then later they complained that I don't tell them things!)
