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.]

yep! there’s a little bit more detail in A Brief Primer on Technofascism, and the section where I describe the weaponization of open source is going to expand quite a bit with several more examples by the second draft of that post

as far as I know the term “weaponization of open source” is original, but it describes a pattern that goes back many years and seems to be getting more frequent as some corporations (which were wrongly seen as being good faith participants in the commons and given an outsized amount of control) get more comfortable with openly using techfash methods
