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.]

Meeting IRL with area sneerers? (awful.systems)

Hi all.

Not a sneer post. (In fact, it's the sort of post that would be blocked/deleted from the reddit SneerClub.)

Recently I’ve been frustrated with the increasing influence of EAs in my city (not SF) and wanting to develop more real-life anti-TESCREAL connections. Perhaps for activism, or perhaps just for lols.

Anyone else interested in hosting/attending some area happy hours?

I would be reluctant to go to an irl sneer club. I do like the idea of some sort of "sneer-in" to inform local activist organizations and politically active people about these groups and their cursed ideology.

For me it’d be highly contingent on who and where

I’ve been on the internet long enough to know the necessary possibly spicy things that could happen

And i suspect a significant number of sneerers are people are folks who are more vulnerable or have exposure concerns or somesuch, and I entirely understand such risk models and why they may wish to avoid any meetup

Definitely doesn’t help that the promptfans have outright sent death threats to folks like Torres etc, either
