get the fuck out

also hexbear has a new domain? thanks for letting us know with a typically shitty fucking post

e: when in the fuck did we refederate with fucking hexbear? I’m assuming somebody misclicked

I’m glad you’re able to join us. what you went through — both the acts themselves as well as the Rationalists defending each other and ostracizing you afterwards — breaks my heart. I have just a couple of questions for now:

• are you ok with links to your previous writing on this topic being posted in this thread? this isn’t to establish proof (it’s already abundantly clear that you’re telling the truth, and we know the Rationalists have a history with both committing and systematically excusing SA), it’s just to provide further detail to anyone who wants it.
• is there anything our community can do to help make it easier to discuss what happened?

yud-length posts like these that boil down to “nuh-uh” are why we have the “no debate unless it’s amusing debate” rule, and I can see by the downvotes from local and the reactions that you’ve failed to be amusing

if I were you I’d reconsider this thread

In April 2014, Gerard created a RationalWiki article about Effective Altruism, framing the subculture as “well-off libertarians congratulating each other on what wonderful human beings they are for working rapacious [s—]weasel jobs but choosing their charities well, but never in any way questioning the system that the problems are in the context of,” “a mechanism to push the libertarian idea that charity is superior to government action or funding,” and people who “will frequently be seen excusing their choice to work completely [f—]ing evil jobs because they’re so charitable.”

it’s fucking amazing how accurate this is, and almost a decade before SBF started explaining himself and never stopped

now I know what I’m listening to during work

the racist caricatures in my head tell me that actually you’re the real racist? glad we could be rational about this
