Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

If it weren't for the fact that many people in the ratspace are privileged, I'd feel sad for them. They are frogs in a well and crabs in a bucket. They exist in a solipsistic pit, thinking their worldview is built from pure logic and not their individual experience. This is all well-trodden ground- we know LW et al. is a cult. Such a strange and specific way to hamstring yourself, to self-lobotomise. Something something Plato's cave, qualia, lobster social hierarchy reference.
