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.]

Telling people that the AI superintelligence guy also posted a Harry Potter self-insert fanfic to push his beliefs and recruit people to his ideology is a huge bombshell to drop on someone

There are so many connections between all these people and big events/culture war stuff that I jokingly start calling myself a conspiracy theorist when I start explaining these things.

(See how you can go from Jason Arday to LW in 3 steps. Arday to the racist Cofnas, who is in a picture with Moldbug who was popularized using lesswrong).
