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.]

How it started: gonna build the robotgod but nice
How it went: wow we need to teach people how to think.
How it ended: we cant do basic things people have done since we decided to walk upright because some people are mean.
Even 4chan can trade/coordinate/and have functional outcomes, sure often for evil. But most of us are not even active on lw. Skill issue. If you cant beat a bunch of sneerders who are not even participating what chance do they have against the godAI (same with not being able to convince one human).
Eponymous even. Guess they don't know who named sneerclub.
Some more sneering, why use make footnotes like you are actually linking to proof, it is done all over the place and it tricks me a lot 'ah they backed it up with a source' nope some random footnote which is so wordy it breaks the site on mobile.
The death penalty of not just you but your whole family if you copy that floppy.
Holy shit, hahaha what are you wasting your time on...
Scrolled down to the comments:
Yeah indeed how would they solve these problems in Ravenloft.
To give a rather notorious example, there's the He Will Not Divide Us flag in 2017, which the 'channers tracked down after only 38 hours, despite Shia LeBouf's attempts to keep the location hidden.
The future media conglomerates want. (okay maybe not the "death penalty" part - dead people don't make money)
Re the flag.
Not just that, but they also on a less malicious case id4chan, and now id6chan were also 4chan productions iirc. (With others from the internet also helping). Which documents all kinds of strange warhammer lore, the /tg/ interpretation of that and their various hate for certain authors of the games. For example https://1d6chan.miraheze.org/wiki/Robin_Cruddace
The flag was the most obvious one I could think of, given how many eyes were already on HWNDU and how swiftly they found it. In retrospect, I should've chosen 1d4chan/1d6chan as my example, given how large and robust it is as a wiki.
The SCP Foundation arguably qualifies as well - it began on /x/ as a random post, before morphing into the ongoing collaborative writing project we all know and love.
Well, the first thing I thought about was also the flag (but more because people brought it up a while back), and TIL about the SCP foundation (despite me talking about 4chan from time to time I never have been a channer, I have only very rarely posted some stuff in the roguelikes topic, and left when people let the neo-nazis in who kept calling people who asked a bit of money for a roguelike jews. Just sucks they never heard of the nazi bar stuff.
