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.]

Over the course of my research, it has come to my attention that Jordan Lasker was invited to give a talk titled "The Academic and Career Trajectories of Underqualified College Admits" at Stanford University's Classical Liberalism Initiative seminar series. The series of talks, run by Iván Marinovic out of the School of Business whose goal is to invite professors to "debate ideas and policy issues with rigor, even when doing so may challenge orthodoxy".

These challenges to "orthodoxy" never seem to include ideas like paying reparations for slavery. (Deadpan Daria voice) It's so strange.
