our new piece on SBF gets stuck into the rationalists
(davidgerard.co.uk)
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.]
At this point, if a rationalist says SBF is “smart” it’s probably out of shame/denial that they got duped by a junkie
My own self doubt asks: do rationalists feel shame, though?
Paradoxically, I think they literally are swimming in self shame. A lack of processing that shame is why dumping five more pounds of it into their psyche doesn't effectively alter any part of their behavior.
