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.]

LOL I GUESS E/ACC MEANS EXECUTIVE ACCOUNTABILITY NOW RITE GUISE??? :D

I would love to see more executives face accountability for their fuckery, ACTUALLY!

i'm sure we can get there with reasoned discussion and voting harder

You're being sarcastic right?

[–] Soyweiser@awful.systems 1 points 1 year ago

No sarcasm, is banned on this sub for being counter revolutionary and stopping good rational debate. Just say no to sarcasm!

greatest point against him being a rationalist is the 262 word manifesto, it would be 20,000 words with sections numbered I. II. III. and possibly diagrams

@dgerard "The best teachers are the best communicators: clear, succinct, simple language"

Someone tell Peterson, he's got a lot of editing to do for his diatribes on cleaning your room and kissing boots.

The man probably went insane after psychedelic use, and I have never noticed @BasedBeffJezos to advocate for fixing the system by shooting individual executives. It's a great shot at drawing a plausible-sounding connection; but I think it's not valid criticism.

wait I’m confused, to be a more effective TESCREAL am I not supposed to be microdosing psychedelics every day? you’re sending mixed signals here, yud (also lol @ the pure Ronald Reagan energy of going “yep obviously drugs just make you murderously insane” based on nothing but vibes and the need to find a scapegoat that isn’t the consequences of your own ideology)

On the other hand, bombing foreign data centers, likely located in densely populated urban areas, would be justified and morally upstanding if it seems like they might be incarnating the imaginary computer god! I'm glad we have such a nuanced thinker guiding our modern morality.

Big Yud is the all-time champion of shooting his mouth off from the hip.

BTW, there is evidence emerging that all of this is a downstream consequence of chronic pain from a back injury. As a lifting-things enthusiast who mildly tweaked their back once, whew, I can see this being a thing.

Is it crazy that I don't think that the guy is the shooter? I don't see the EA crowd, famous for bootlicking, being up to the task of CEO assassination.

[–] skillissuer@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

first sentence of his manifesto tells you straight that he is a bootlicker:

To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country.

“Things have gotten so bad that even the ~~introverts~~ bootlickers are ~~out protesting~~ assassinating the rich”

Resolved: that people still active on Twitter are presumed morally bankrupt until proven otherwise.

So the first time in a long time (ignoring Japan) a single pleb does something that actually is a bit of accellerationism, which is highly praised by all colors of the political spectrum (fuck the grays), and now it isn't real e/acc? I'm not sure who the fake e/acc people here are!

(I'm kidding here btw, I do think it is quite good that the people who talk people into cults are taking a stance that murdering people you dislike is bad, esp considering their crazy ideas re AI, minorities, animal rights, and Sneerclubbers).
