Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

The slatestar subreddit is doing its regular so what's up with all the racists constantly crawling out of the woodwork around here surprised pikachu thread, in response to Scotty doing Hanania Week in the substack.
So what exactly happens to people who get really into Scott et al. and then realize that they're racist? I mean people like OP who genuinely seemed shocked by how buddy buddy their "unorthodox" intellectuals are with blatant racists.
Do they slowly disengage from rationalist-spheres, or do they just become cryptoracists like all the other idw types?
Also what the fuck?
is this trying to say "discrimination against racists is the real racism"? ... Would that be "racismism"?
"should we really treat violent racists any differently from how we would casually treat a neighbour? what is it really you expect me to do do? why are you so ridiculous?"
just some casual afternoon reframing of violent racism and dehumanising anyone that isn't like themselves, no biggie
