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.]

@sailor_sega_saturn @TinyTimmyTokyo @nyrath I like to call LessWrong "modern-day Scientology" and that moniker seems more and more appropriate with each passing month.

@sailor_sega_saturn @TinyTimmyTokyo @nyrath For someone claiming to be rational (meaning putting reality above superstition), he [Yudkowsky] really did create what is essentially a proto-religion. Hence, Scientology.

I am literally a devout (if reformist) Christian and I'm less superstitious than that clown shoe and his zombies.
