Men were once useful to protect women and children from strangers

What exactly were 50% or so of those strangers?

This is something that keeps bothering me about these savior complex fantasies of gender. A good man defeats a bad man because ???

I invented AGI, superconductors and cancer cures years ago. No, they go to a different school, you wouldn't know them.

No control method exists to safely contain the global feedback effects of self-sufficient learning machinery. What if this control problem turns out to be an unsolvable problem?

While I agree this article is TL and I DR it, this is not an abstract. This is a redundant lede and attempted clickbait at that.

Oh wait I just noticed the L and D are swapped. Feel free not to tell me whether that's a typo or some smarmy lesswrongism.

The pink hair and piercings types generally have fertility below replacement so will not last.

Leave it to the inventor of acausal torture AI to understand cause and effect. Other highly meaningful statistical indicators of having few children might include measuring lenghts in feet, speaking Norwegian, wearing a kimono, working in AI research, using the word "nootropic" or having a passport from a wealthy post-industrialized country.

Since a number of people have claimed that this is #Fascism, I should note that I don't think fascism is a good idea; the core problem is that fascism as it existed in the 20th century was fragile due to too much central control from a small number of powerful individuals.

Palingenetic schmalingenetic. We should simply have a decentralized majority voluntarily choosing to implement these dietary restrictions, arranged sexual partners, online censorship and whatever abridgement of religious freedom cuts down on "virtue signaling" in his mind.

I wonder if Roko has ever considered converting to Wahhabist Islam?

"The main problem with fascism is that it didn't last" is not the convincing disavowal of fascism Roko thinks it is.

Hi, everyone!

I wanted to create an astronomical number of accounts on behalf of all the people who didn't support the creation of this instance, just so they could be banned forever, but that wouldn't be very aligned of me.

Let's have fun sneering together until Yud nukes the server.
