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.]

But dismissing the majority of the community is like saying the entirety of Antifa

drink!

it’s actually amazing to me how many folks in that thread say they love behind the bastards but don’t appear to have learned anything from it. it’s all “oh man I thought Robert Evans would love my particular techfash grift run by billionaires” which, like, what did they think the point of the podcast was this whole time?

If you listen to behind the bastards for a while and don't come away at least itching a little closer towards being a crazy anti-capitalist man with a lot of guns hiding somewhere in the woods I can help you.

Still not a gun fan (I look at statistics) but I hear you on all other accounts.

You know who are gun fans? Strike breakers and their corporate clients
