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 also love this podcast! Having not yet listened to this episode as well, I'd also like to share this classic History for Atheists pod (w/ references) on some of the things Pinker got wrong: https://historyforatheists.com/2021/09/interview-ted-mccormick-on-steven-pinkers-enlightenment/
