Anyone who "doesn't want politics everywhere" is right-wing by definition. Sorry. This is what science is.

> Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism, not TESCREAL

It's all the same thing. Escapist denial is escapist denial. Accelerationists and doomers are the same people.

Well, that's what it means, right. People who think technology can solve social problems, people who think "The Future" will be better than the past. That whole TESCREAL milieu. Where's the disconnect?

> You would think this place would instead discuss The Culture

I can't see it. More of a Musk thing, by association, surely? Totally out of the cultural frame.

I associate anything "post-cyberpunk" with pure stale tech-bro these days, so I don't touch the stuff.

Too many people who can't pick up on how uncomfortable they're making everyone, not enough moderation.

It's a serious problem - the cost is stupendous for anyone without big business money, and if you don't get it right early... It's like the tide.

> the usual signs arent there.

Hellooo! *Waves hand.* Can. You. Hear. Me?

(What you're missing is that I'm part of a new generation of Terminator capable of emulating human sarcasm.)

You don't see how the US being a right-wing capitalist authoritarian state and not a left-wing communist authoritarian state answers the question of why I'm talking about the right when I talk about the US?

Then I don't think I can help you, no.

You don't see the connection between the capital-state and fascism? The US is of course neither communist nor left-wing in any sense today.

> #{state-run economic and social groups like early 20th century Italy}

The idea that anything outside 20th-century Italy can't possibly be fascism is certainly fascist, yes. Thank you for demonstrating.

The article makes the connection, though obliquely. It seems obvious enough - large parts of the USian West embody fascism in their unnatural relationship with nature. Unsustainable water consumption, roads and "the freedom of the open highway," etc.

And as late-stage capitalism "progresses" it'll all become uninhabitable, replicating the logic of the so-called climate migration crisis within as it is without.

Man's delusion of mastering nature, nature's reality of mastering man. Fascist strength is illusory.

We already have the right amount of taboo against letting weirdos say unpleasant things they think are true, and in favor of mocking manbabies until they stop talking.

Why debate bro when I can hate bros?

"I am your GOD! Worship me! Worship meee!"

I think it's still around and turned into some right-wing thing. Or that's the impression I got somewhere...

Isn't one of them going around offering people "reverse gangbangs" to resign from Anthropic?

> Somewhere, some rationalist-brained person is reading this and saying I'm a "low decoupler", and that whether they run a sex cult has nothing to do with whether they're correct.

Yudchuds gonna yudchud.

Y'all need to cut the sex pest before we do it for you, mate.

You haven't noticed real life?

It doesn't really matter whether autonomous cars crash less than human drivers. A computer can never be punished, so a computer must never be allowed to kill any humans.

Freeze peach was never a good concept.

The libertarian Internet was a mistake and the world will be a better place when it's gone.

"Italian neckbeard collective declared terrorist organization by Donald Trump" - what a world we live in.

People say "narcolepsy this" and "ADHD that" but we know y'all need off these drugs.

My favorite conspiracy of the moment is that Trump won in 2020 and lost in 2024, but they switched them because he needed more time. People truly are regrettable.

The rise of historical nihilism is why we need new algorithms that can tell true from false. Human moderators simply can't manage the scale and volume of modern communication.

"Truth" doesn't exist outside of social construction, which is performed through narrative warfare, so in fact you want what you already have.

SovCit/Libertarian types love treating "Constitutional" as a kind of magic spell. I wouldn't worry about it too much. They're more beard than people.

It's probably worth checking the site history before posting. The guy who wrote this looks like some kind of "race science" crackpot.

The author or his opponents?

This is exactly what I was talking about last comment. Y'all can't keep doing this. Learn to control yourselves or be controlled. It's your choice - and your only choice.
