This is somewhere between Steven Pinker and the Time Cube guy

Roko's Basilisk is a silly little sci-fi story that its creator calls a "thought experiment" because he considers himself an intellectual. Absolute moron.

People like this dude should be shot. Like they're not even capable of being re-educated.

Really brutal reeducation camps for people like this. Really annoying when the dumbest person in any given room has everything "figured out" and "proven"

Why is this a guy anyone ever listens to? :vomit:

women have a negative contribution to GDP

Unlike floods, earthquakes, and hurricanes, which have a positive contribution to GDP.

"...which is mainly male due to men because men..."

Truly one of our greatest minds.

Ricky: I’m gonna give you this UBI to fuck off.

Nice! A previously undiscovered species of brain worm!

Ngl the being paid to do whatever for 20 years sounds pretty nice

I fucking hate nuclear energy types, because their arguments generally boil down to "no we don't have to address the issues inherent in the capitalist system that has led us to the brink of climate collapse, we have a panacea! It's actually not dangerous at all, because the times that it was dangerous didn't count because they were built/run poorly." They never stop to consider that nuclear power plants are built/run poorly because of capitalism and they WILL continue to be dangerous as long as we are driven by a lust for mammon.

And yeah he's also weird about women. Also a dipshit talking about facts while knowing none. He should drown.

Obviously this is dumb but it's weirdly more 'progressive' than I expected? Like women would get guaranteed lifetime UBI without restrictions on their behavior?

I fucking love science!

And by that I mean gesturing to mathematics and evolution in an insane attempt to justify my 19th century robber baron views on gender! I am so fucking smart!

A belief in true meritocracy based on biological determinism? In my Rational Thinker?

I read all of that junk just when it could've been summed up with:

"I've never had intimate contact with a woman in my entire life."

SMH

I have no idea who this is, and I'm sure I never want to know.

in awe at the phrase "almost prove it mathematically." this is rigorous scientific analysis folks.

Clearly the people who are responsible for the most worth in the economy are people who tell scary stories about robots, like Roko here, and not maids, grocery workers or waitresses. You can tell because they're paid less, see.

I wanna invent a device that slaps people every time they say "wokeness"
