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.]

Fundamentally, both rats and people who are drawn to the economic promises of cryptocurrencies are opposed to the scientific method. Crapto peeps/goldbugs/Austrian economics fans are convinced that "sound money" is required for a society to function, so they twist everything to make reality conform to that vision. Similarly, for rats/eugenicists, the idea that some people are superior to others is an axiom, and they'll happily ditch actual science to arrive at that conclusion. The whole "we love the scientific method" is just LARPing.
