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.]

Um. Lots of questions, but none are important, because TBH if I don't know then it is probably stuff that does not personally matter to me.
What and where are or were Vibecamp and Vibegala? Never heard of them.
What does "harm reduction" mean? What does "SA'd" mean?
Vibecamp 1 was at camp champions in austin, Vibecamp 2 (and the others afaik) are at Ramblewood in Maryland
Vibegala 1 and 2 were hosted at a mansion/party compound in the berkeley hills, I'm not sure about 3 but 4 was at Lighthaven
Vibecamp is basically rationalist summer camp with talks, lectures, activations and dance parties, Vibegala was hard to describe but kind of urban vibecamp / a very typical berkeley burner party
SA stands for sexual assault (sorry i probably should have just put that in the title given this isn't twitter or facebook)
Vibecamp is a meetup for the rationalist subculture, especially of the TPOT (That Part Of Twitter) subgroup. Curtis Yarvin was an honoured guest in 2022 and got treated like a rock star.
The person who talked about microdosing meth as a substitute for Adderall was writing about Vibecamp (I have not reread this post, please use discretion if anything about Rationalist events could be traumatizing).
Really hate to say this, but if you're coming from a place of ignorance and want to ask about what terms mean, you might want to be extra careful with how you ask. You should also do some homework on your own before trying to participate.
Seconding the core sentiment here
Those that have gone through abuse and hurt already have a lot on their plate, and having to handhold others through it is a lot of work - try to be mindful of what you might be asking from another
get the fuck out
also hexbear has a new domain? thanks for letting us know with a typically shitty fucking post
e: when in the fuck did we refederate with fucking hexbear? I’m assuming somebody misclicked
SA is "sexual(ly) assault(ed)" The rest is googlable.
