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.]

amazing how much shittier it is to be in the rat community now that the racists won. before at least they were kinda coy about it and pretended to still have remotely good values instead of it all being yarvinslop.

it would be nice to be able to ever invite rat friends to anything but half the time when I've done this in the last year they try selling people they just met on scientific racism!

I know I'm kinda bouncing the rubble at this point, but I want to highlight another bit of crazy here:

I will go ahead and extend this to anything and everything that gives a person the sense of belonging.

That sense of belonging is definitely part of normal human psychology, and ties into the whole self-concept and sense of identity; we need to know ourselves in relation to one another just as much if not more than we need to understand ourselves in relation to the physical world. Rejecting (checks notes) the concept of community is wildly unhealthy and will lead to deeply unhinged and unhappy people.
