Drama from earlier this year:
In this corner: r/TheMotte, a wordswordswords offshoot of r/slatestarcodex
In that corner: r/sneerclub, sworn enemy of Rationalists for wrongthink (instead of an actual sensible reason to hate rationalists: longposting)
Motte neurodivergent posts 200,000 word essay to say why the concept of transing makes no sense.(Note most reasonable people could sum this up in a sentence or two, but this is TheMotte, after all.)
Sneerclub predictably dilates, especially when poster shows up: https://old.reddit.com/r/SneerClub/comments/km9w3s/like_a_butcherbird_i_am_hanging_this_longwinded/ghef242/
