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.]

lobste.rs just banned an 11 year old account with almost 5,000 comments and 45k karma for being a transphobic jerk. No muss, no fuss, no apologetic blogpost where the user could defend themselves and rile up the masses.
That's how you do it, people.
edit I have now skimmed the comments where banned use Said can explain himself, and he's using his last efforts to nobly defend himself, thanking his admirers, and generally projecting an image of a man wrongly accused.
j/k he's doubling down on being a dick.
oh, i'm laughing now. it's actually beautiful that it was the anubis' anime jackal girl that forced him to drop the plausible deniability shield and go full queerphobic.
I finally found which user we're talking about and I am quietly delighted at that smarmy fucker being directed to the fourth-floor egress.
edit: here's the long form mod last warning. You'll see in that thread my next prediction for ejection via the fourth floor, whose profile shows he's into crypto.
they finally got that asshole? took ’em long enough
yeah sorry I had the username ("friendlysock") in a first draft then forgot to add it
good riddance to bad rubbish
....why does that username ring bells in my brain
did it show up here somewhat recently? (I ask right before checking search)
(e: nothing immediately in search but I could swear I've seen that name somewhere in the last few months (and not in a good context))
smarmy not as cryptic as he thought right-winger on lobsters who didn't quite hide his power level
shit you're right, I should search offsite (active) chats too
(like, largely it just bugs me where I know the name from (because being baseline horrendous at recalling names and then recognising this one is uhhhh))
