@self@dgerard Wanna bet Scott didn’t listen to the podcast before he wrote these replies?
Also note that this post fails their own moderation rules. it isn’t true nor kind (they admit their reaction is in bad faith), and it is according to them culture war shit. I wonder if you were to post this podcast and said you agreed with it if your post would be removed due to culture war.
(Also wow Scotts replies are so bad, layers of strawmen and misunderstanding of the lefts arguments)
Well technically, there’s no culture war thread on the subreddit anymore, so all of the culture war rules they had to invent to contain the culture war they started in part by inventing a series of culture war rules which constantly fed the flames of culture war are irrelevant, since when there’s no culture war thread to quarantine the culture war it’s fine to wage culture war elsewhere (and if you took away culture war, what would be the point of either the sub or its inspiring author?)
@YouKnowWhoTheFuckIAM And they have not even updated their rules after all those years. Prob because parts of the rules come from ‘The Rightful Caliph’ himself, and well can’t change them without divine guidance about what to do about the themotte/cw problem.
@YouKnowWhoTheFuckIAM (My joke about the ‘The Rightful Caliph’ doesn’t come from sneerclub btw, it was actually what some of the Rationalists said about Scott when he became more popular than Yudkowsky)
