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.]

Perhaps the NRx-curiosity is a natural consequence of the Guardian’s “gender-critical” editorial stance? Look at all the other TERFs jumping into bed with actual masks-off Nazis.

My vibe is that the Guardian UK still thinks it's a left wing feminist stance to be transphobic ^1^, and unrelatedly, the Collins articles keep getting printed because everyone involved

the Collinses, their PR people, the Guardian -- know perfectly well what ragebait is. A click is a click.

1: Somehow. What the hell is in the water in the UK? ^2^

2: Cryptosporidium
