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.]

You know, one of the things I resent the most about shits like Thiel and Andreessen and Altman going around with ideas like supervillains from a Saturday morning cartoon is that whenever I try to talk to other people that aren't familiar with them about their ideas, those ideas are so excessive and ridiculous that I end up looking like a crank and conspiracy theorist just talking about them.
He has 10 surviving kids, not that many partners iirc (but don't look into the age gaps for his partners if you don't want to see a creepy pattern, but I try not to focus on his exes that much, as while some of them post sneerworthy content I don't think 'being an ex of a billionaire shithead' makes people a valid sneertarget for their silly rightwing SV opinions). But yeah it is strange how often that kind of light eugenics stuff comes up. (See also Epstein) Combined with his anti immigrant stances and SA background it is a pretty bad. (What is also creepy about the man how he is dragging X (who he is in a custody battle over) to all his events, and that is basically the only kid you see him in public with. But as far as Musk goes, he really is the odd one out of the bunch, as he really seems to believe a lot of the dumb shit the mega rich peddle to other people, like the meritocracy. You can also see just how little he understood of all of this by his stances on paperclip AGI 'just make them not kill humans' [sounds of Yud crying]. And the we might be in a simulation argument (of which he takes the ancestor simulation part to argue that we live most likely in a simulation (iirc the og argument goes to 'we might' and doesn't try to argue we prob do (which is a different and dumber argument)).
And say what you want about Thiel at least he isn't' trying to breed a race of mini-Thiels (he just educates them).
yeah well since gawker god knows what people aren’t covering about thiel’s breeding programme
He prob breeds the new mutant Chernobyl wolves.
Edit: no I do not mean it like that you damn furries! (I realized I made an error in phrasing here).
Radioactive Wolf Twinks? My God, what have we done…

Also Musk’s grandfather, a raging racist and antisemite who, if I recall correctly, moved from Canada *to* South Africa because of apartheid.
I believe Musk’s dad has recently remarried with a younger woman and plans to have more “pure” kids.
Yes yes, the whole family is weird, but lets keep the subject on the rich tech paypal dweebs.
Ow and before I forget, his brother Kimbal Musk got a girlfriend from Epstein.
