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.

“Sufficiently polite nazis–which you cannot tell apart from normal users–will help a community, but uncivil people–even if good!– will harm it.”

This is literally how you get a Nazi bar.

Non-Nazis, shockingly, are capable of recognizing "sure, they're following the rules right now; but they're still Nazis" and deciding not to associate with them. The people who are willing to associate with Nazis... well, you know.

Having flashbacks to the rationalwiki discord server

I was today years old when I learned that there was a rationalwiki discord server.

multiple RW discords, all officially unofficial

Rationalwiki users later voted to disaffiliate from the discord server for reasons largely unrelated to what I'm having flashbacks about.
