Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Edit is not delete. Oops.
Anyway remmeber when he created the fictional concept of the scissor statement? https://slatestarcodex.com/2018/10/30/sort-by-controversial/
For all his talks about the garden of good faith debate he wants to be a troll so badly. (See also the work he did to maintain sock puppets in the fake nation game).
I'm now reminded he also pulled the 'what if the people against me are also antisemites' shit in untitled. "Oops, I accidentally included three neo-Nazi caricatures of Jews in there. You did notice, right?" Yeah we did, that was weird.
Anyway, yes the compassion of 'the far right are right about race and IQ, but we shouldn't be mean about it' and 'Marxbro is banned for pointing out somebody badly misquoted Marx'
(Not a huge fan of how sneerclub is talking about Yuds SM stuff btw, like there are not compassionate people who are also into BDSM, but I have been worrying the place is going to turn more into a r/drama place for a while now).
