a brave editor spreads the truth

uh, or not

[-] V0ldek@awful.systems 18 points 4 months ago

I have never edited the LessWrong article, not sure what you're talking about.

I meant I have never disruptively edited the article. (...) I'm not a power user of Wikipedia and don't understand all your specialist terminology

Dude physically unable to take an L.

"Specialist terminology" like... the word edit?

Not sure writing an encyclopedia is a good hobby for you, bro.

[-] blakestacey@awful.systems 13 points 4 months ago

OK, I just spent 10 minutes of my life that I'll never get back clicking around Wikipedia edit histories, and it seems that LessWrongers are really unhappy about the LessWrong article saying anything about neoreactionaries. And they're willing to say why at typical length.

aww, poor babies. if only they didn't literally have the leading nrx thinkers as figures of note in their own community makeup! alas, difficulty: impossible

I think that might have been bad faith, but im not sure.

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 12 points 4 months ago

christ that second reply is some pure-grade uwu smolbean pretension bullshit

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 11 points 4 months ago

Apologies, I meant I have never disruptively edited the article

"what do you mean keep the music down? it's not that loud"

I was simply trying to improve its quality

"I merely wish you to be on my level? what's that, what level is it? it's mine of course, what a ridiculous question"

I'm not a power user of Wikipedia and don't understand all your specialist terminology so forgive me if I make the odd mistake or faux pas

don't even have a sneer for this. this "oh, oops, totes didn't mean to offend!" shit that these fuckers pull when they get caught out is so goddamn tired. facepunch material.

(it's not even particularly "good" darvo)

Please don't doxx me.

"goooootta make the other people responsible for my own actions! that's the ticket!"

I love the "uh, you know we can see what you've done" reply.

Lol how has that user not been banned yet. Clearly somebody with a very specific axe to grind.

And of course the Rationalists start to the things they accuse others of doing. How quickly the pretense of civility disappears.

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.]
