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.]

This is so gratuitous, and so irrelevant to the actual demographics of Israel (most Israeli are neither Ashkenazi nor Sephardi, which shouldn't be a surprise if you're vaguely aware of geography) that I have to wonder if this is meant as some sort of weird antisemitic dog whistle. Probably he couldn't even say himself.
In any case, typical ignorance of Israel stans (and many critics sadly) who love to think of it as a white country.
I assume it is just the genetics/iq fanboying which leads them to think like this, not some weird antisemitic dogwhistle, not that philosemitism isn't also a form of antisemitism via othering.
Ashkenazi IQ and asian SAT scores absolutely are the "but I have a black friend!" of race science, but further mythologizing Yud and Scoot on those grounds also happens.
yeah remember that it's a LW tenet that Ashkenazi Jews are of unusually high IQ. Coincidentally a group containing both Eliezer and Scoot
their ancestors were optimized in the shtetl
