  • Accusing the other side of bad faith (cantrip)
  • Mentioning own IQ (cantrip)
  • Non apology (1st level) (e.g. I'm sorry you feel that way)
  • Empty apology (3rd level)
  • Insincere apology (5th level)
  • Acknowledgement of individual experience outside of one's own (7th level)
  • Admission of wrongdoing/incorrectness (9th level)
  • Genuine guilt (11th level)

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
