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.]

I couldn't tell what you were saying. Answering "yes" to the question of whether you were writing "in sarcasm or support" is not at all informative.

It means it was meant to be sarcastic and supportive. I thought answering "yes" to an "or" question is familiar to most people on the internet these days.

tbh, one thing I'm tired of from the internet, is exactly the post-ironic conflation of "just kinding but also sincerely" as wit. It's actually quite old (mid-late 2000's) and frequently a vehicle for the most vile views on the internet. And it's not clever.
