You know how leftwingers have now realized that teaching the right about concepts like gaslighting was a mistake because they keep misusing them? So instead of a 'do not do this/be aware of people doing this' they turn it into a rethorical weapon. The motte and bailey.

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.]
