The community manager saying they were aware of the situation (and presumably took no corrective action and kept it hush-hush) was damning. As is the post that's just like what about the reputational damage!?

Zero recognition of the fucked up power dynamics at play, and way too much 'well, nerds will be nerds.'

I seem to recall a very similar situation in EA, let me dig it up... ah yes, it was this entire Time article: https://time.com/6252617/effective-altruism-sexual-harassment/

Seems to line up pretty closely with what several other people say about several other "orgs."

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.]
