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.]

And I’m right here!
So a post appears in ‘ALL’ and I click on it. I’m not an aficionado of ‘sneer club’ so I don’t know what it’s about.
I’ve now gone through to the sidebar and I’m left rather uninformed due to the purposely opaque cliquey in-joke nature of the text there. I mean, those are definitely words, I’ll give you that.
The link at the top doesn’t help because i don’t have time to parse a whole article when a 10 word summation of the community would do.
But thanks.
you sure did have time to write a 150 word micro-essay about why you’re a bannable dickhead though
for anyone else who stumbles on our threads from all and is (justifiably) confused: please for the love of fuck lurk before posting a demand that we do labor for you
if you’ve lurked and searched TESCREAL and Eliezer Yudkowsky and other shit from the sidebar and you still need clarification, maybe posting a shitty rant in the style of someone’s dad about how kids these days don’t stop and explain themselves to their elders in a random thread is the wrong move
The failure mode of clever continues to be asshole.
It's a lousy bit, because if you're going to do a goddamn "crocus" joke about hundreds of people being shot at a concert, you should obviously make the pun about Swiss heavy metal legends "Krokus."
it's gone by now, what was there
a deeply shitty joke??? observation???? about how a crocus is a flower and therefore how could it be the subject of a terror attack?
completely indistinguishable from all the other posts in their history, all of which were made by reading the title of the thread and posting the first garbage that came to mind
It's not like if Russian artillery pieces aren't named after flowers, so maybe there's another tradition in play here.
so in effect you went to some random forum you had never heard of, read one post in it, didn't click around or anything, and replied "I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. DO BETTER"
