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.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

It's always funny to see this because you think that you're part of the smart 10% with original thoughts while actually you're the insufferable 10% whose only thought is that of superiority with nothing to back it up.

My cat has more original thoughts than that and he's currently stuck head-first in a cereal box.

it’s not shocking because we’ve seen worse, but it is remarkable how fascist the implications of this “most people don’t possess cognition” idea are

it’s also very funny how many of these presumed cognition-havers have come to this thread and our instance in general with effectively the same lazy, shitty, thoughtless take on the nature of humanity

actually speaking of fascism, I took a quick look at our guest’s post history:

  • African countries and IQ
  • COVID conspiracy theories
  • constant right-wing conspiracies in general really
  • fucking links to voat and zerohedge
  • there’s more but I tapped out early
