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.]

Well technically, there’s no culture war thread on the subreddit anymore, so all of the culture war rules they had to invent to contain the culture war they started in part by inventing a series of culture war rules which constantly fed the flames of culture war are irrelevant, since when there’s no culture war thread to quarantine the culture war it’s fine to wage culture war elsewhere (and if you took away culture war, what would be the point of either the sub or its inspiring author?)
@YouKnowWhoTheFuckIAM And they have not even updated their rules after all those years. Prob because parts of the rules come from 'The Rightful Caliph' himself, and well can't change them without divine guidance about what to do about the themotte/cw problem.
@YouKnowWhoTheFuckIAM (My joke about the 'The Rightful Caliph' doesn't come from sneerclub btw, it was actually what some of the Rationalists said about Scott when he became more popular than Yudkowsky)
