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.

Scott Adams rant was racist enough that Scott Alexander actually calls it racist! Of course, Scott is quick to reassure the readers that he wouldn't use the r-word lightly and that he completely disagrees with "cancellation".
I also saw a lot of more irony moments where Scott Alexander fails to acknowledge or under-acknowledges his parallels with the other Scott.
Yes, it is much more clever to bury your manipulations in ten thousand words of beigeness.
Overal, even with Scott going so far as to actually call Scott's rant racist and call Scott a manipulator, he is still way way too charitable to Scott.
