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.]

Who is "we" and what is the description?
We = Cool
Orange Site = Hacker News
EA = Effective Altruism. Sam Bankman Fried identified with this group. Loosely associated with the rationalist movement.
Rationalists = Oh man where do I even start. A lot of them believe in the inevitable rise of an AI god who will rule us with either an iron or benevolent fist depending on how good a job we do of raising it. Also there's a lot of misuse of Bayes' Theorem for some reason.
Any questions?
We is david in this case, he has earned the right to refer to himself in a plural as his crimes against humanity are that great. Matchmaker from hell, destroyer of twitter and reddit, creator of all the woke articles on wikipedia and rationalwiki, look at their works ye mighty and despair for his burning eye is upon you.
in this case, and Amy!
I was ignoring her for the joke, sorry Amy.
Somehow more confused people are stumbling into awful.systems than ever stumbled into sneerclub.
I don’t know what it is about the existence of multiple instances that confuses the truly Reddit-minded into stumbling into another sub and demanding they explain themselves
there is something about this that makes me more confident in the future of the federated social web. There is a core infrastructure but not a core brand.
Isn't it just a hangover from doing the same on Reddit, just with subreddits?

The miracle of decentralization!
