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.]

yeah, I read the whole article. being an AI doomer must be absolutely miserable. the whole thing just reeks of cult behaviour but especially that part. they're living in a bubble completely separate from reality

It's reminiscent of the freakout among some of the rationalists when Roko's basilisk first appeared. And they wonder why people keep calling them an apocalyptic cult.
