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.]

The highlight for me is coming up with some weird pseudoscience justification for why it’s okay to hit your kids.

Ignoring the -pretty much- fact that these are horrible people and horrible parents, are they fucking daft? There are 8 billion people on the planet, we're akin to earth cancer at this point, and we desperately need LESS human beings, not more.

No, I'm not advocating eugenics or any other dumb idea like that, in advoci for having less children (on average) sttleast until were down to a more reasonable <4 billion inhabitants on this world.

We can still supply the resources required to have 8 billion, but the sheet amount is killing the earth. With -for example- 4 billion people, we would on average have more for each, while the earth would get a breath of air while we take less resources.

People like this make me very cynical about the future of humanity. The worst assholes and the worst ideas always seem to get all the attention because these people whore themselves out. Of course Elon musk supports them, one dumb idiot supporting other dumb idiots.

Can we please PLEASE all start listening to reasonable people now?
