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.]

i mean they were huge fans and think Britain joined the wrong side of the war
When I a was a kid, fresh off TV airings of Scarlet Pimpernel & Ivanhoe, I developed an unfortunate pash for Anthony Andrews. This led to my uncritical absorption of him as Edward VII in The Woman He Loved, which led to my being very sad about the poor man had to quit his job because he loved that nice divorced lady.
Anyway, screw that anti-Semitic, racist son of an imperialist nightmare, screw his Nazi-loving wife, and for good measure, yeet the house of windsor directly into the sun.
I recall reading a great twitter thread a while back that covered a lot of the nazi interplay in british high society in the years prior to ww2. really should re-find that and get it archived (and/or find some other primary sources to read about it)
