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.]

This is a good article. I just recently heard this TESCREAL term from the Crazy Town podcast, and it's scary stuff. I don't know what some of these words are on your community sidebar and I'm not at all sure what this community is about. I'm guessing it's a hate group, otherwise you would use words everyone understands. And now I'm wondering what's even the use of this comment. And I'm probably about to get attacked by members of an online hate group

yeah, sneerclub is a sub for those who know too much about these bozos (I've been following them since 2010 good lord) to post negativity. The linked article is the easy introduction to their foolishness.

TESCREAL is becoming the accepted academic acronym - Transhumanism, Singularity, Cosmism, Rationalism, Effective Altruism, Longtermism - even though TREACLES was right there
