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.]

I thought he did a good job. Most of the commentary I've seen in the last 20 years has been saying its garbage science (culturally biased, etc), but Veritasium tried to argue towards moderation. i.e., it does have its place and it does have its faults.
