I will never get over how the pretty girl in the photo attached is LITERALLY Roko of the Basilisk's example of the bad ending for humanity
(awful.systems)

Roko’s twitter is an absolutely reliable guide to how recently a woman with dyed hair and facial piercings kicked him in the nuts again
I don't even get his point. You can voluntarily use your freedom to constrain yourself already. What, is the Food Optimizer gonna knock down your door and force-feed you McDonald's? Has vegetarianism become illegal? Clearly what he's actually mad about is that the state won't let him involuntarily constrain others
Surely he should be supporting democracy movements all over the world, safe in the knowledge that when people everywhere have the freedom to choose they will definitely choose to live according to his perfect philosophy....oh? he doesn't have any confidence in the "marketplace of ideas" and wants to just force people to follow the social norms he prefers? Great
