      We = Cool

      Orange Site = Hacker News

      EA = Effective Altruism. Sam Bankman Fried identified with this group. Loosely associated with the rationalist movement.

      Rationalists = Oh man where do I even start. A lot of them believe in the inevitable rise of an AI god who will rule us with either an iron or benevolent fist depending on how good a job we do of raising it. Also there’s a lot of misuse of Bayes’ Theorem for some reason.

      Any questions?

      We is david in this case, he has earned the right to refer to himself in a plural as his crimes against humanity are that great. Matchmaker from hell, destroyer of twitter and reddit, creator of all the woke articles on wikipedia and rationalwiki, look at their works ye mighty and despair for his burning eye is upon you.
