the cult compounds have existed but they're Bay Area share houses and with the rent so high they can't afford guns

@dgerard Yeah, the closest they get to a compound in the middle of nowhere full of explosives is an air-conditioned trailer at Burning Man

Ziz's cult did attack someone with a sword, so

I am so lost on what even happened there. Was that at the peaceful protest where they were surrounded by police?

I went digging through some old threads on sneerclub and came away more confused than I started

stabbed their landlord apparently? i mean fair, but for the wrong reasons

[-] Evinceo@awful.systems 4 points 1 year ago

I maintain that the reason they haven't gone full Waco isn't that they aren't deranged enough, but rather it would require them to confront the fact that they have nobody to blame but themselves for Clippy so they rationalize themselves into inaction.

The ones that scare me the most are the ones that are no longer afraid of Clippy and replaced that fear with a fear of, like, minorities.

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.]
