Unfortunately for everyone alive, it's probably Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality
it's wild how it fueled big yud's rise to fame and tangentially spawned a death cult considering how catastrophically bad the writing is
I hate that there's a direct line from a rationalist freak writing harry potter fan fiction to me having to drag a mattress around in the middle of the night last night because the google AI told my dad the wrong location for bulk trash pickup.
...wait, he was writing that between the ages of 30 and 35? Jesus Christ, this whole time I assumed it was written by a smug teenager.
also lol, how did I never realize that he was born on 9/11
literally only if you are a redditor
Or someone stabbed to death with a katana by a redditor
I still am.mad that rationalist are just liberals that are less intelligent than average.
