Is this offensive or Culture War-ish at all? What?
Fine I will be mostly on LW then. I have my own rationalist forum as well which welcomes anyone.
http://rationalitycorner.freeforums.net/
Have fun!
We don't censor any view as long as they are rational.

RC is a free speech rationalist forum that does not censor any view. However any view needs to be rationally justified.

We welcome anyone from SJWs to National Socialists and from radical feminists to MRA.
I don't care about your view as long as you are willing to have it examined in good faith.
As I said before I'm very pro-Jewish and have an unusual combination of views. However I welcome any rationalist. :-)

As for the so-called Jewish problem it does not exist. Instead the problem of non-Jews refusing to emulate Jews and their success does exist. Might is right.

As for why you are a terrible poster: your posts just assume that everyone should care what you think. "I believe Jews are great" No one cares. "I believe Autists should have their own planet" No one cares. "On the imaginary autist planet that only exists or will ever exist in my head there are sex robots" No one cares.

I don't really have a status quo bias. I never advocate for submitting to those who are in power. Instead I'm all for making ourselves powerful. On the sexual issue for example the status quo does not favor autists. However we can try to change it. Might is right. Whoever that is mighty enough can rewrite the rules. Hence be mighty.
Nick Land is right that progress is made in hell. It is not pleasant to hear but it is true. The only way to make the universe a less cruel place is to take over it and then find loopholes to rewrite its physical laws if possible or use other means to do so. Might is right.

If the universe is hell and we want to make it less hellish then we must somehow literally take over the universe and then abolish its cruelty.
Might is right. Nobody who likes to give you mercy has been observed. However nobody who enjoys torturing sentient beings above all has been observed either. As long as there are no deities who intentionally keep the universe hellish I believe we might be able to transform at least some parts of it into something benign.

SSCers like to larp as autists but they highly dislike actual ones.
Autists are often obsessive retards but they also have (and share) interesting perspectives and are first to call a naked emperor for what it is. They keep normies away. You know a place is lame when they worry about weirdness points instead of shocking outsiders on purpose, for filtering and protection.
You have to be a mild, domesticated autist not to get banned on SSC. Limit yourself to talk about trains or battleships and you'll do fine. Remember these bugmen are cooperation fetishists.
Much of this is because of the culture wars, they negatively impact both: The autist becomes obsessed with stupid shit like TRP (TRP is true btw, just not something worthy of obsession) and normies become even more intolerant of everything. A list of haram topics, words, attitudes, etc. that changes every week appears almost designed to hurt the autistic. It doesn't help that some of the most interesting topics are considered downright heresy by >50%.
That said you still need to get better at bullshit if you want most people to bother with you and you need to get better at insight if you want people that don't care about bullshit to bother with you.

Normies and conformists can go to hell. If I design transhumans I will certainly abolish conformism and irrationality. Oh and social signalling, etc. Basically I want to abolish neurotypicality.
We do need to sometimes pretend to blend into normies. However we must remain ourselves.

The two aren't mutually exclusive. In fact, I'd say that most places that use shock as a barrier to entry are policed for weirdness and condition their new members to police each other. It is a survival behavior that places are selected for.

I'm autistic myself, but that seems like the kind of conclusion you need to be extremely careful with. Don't trust yourself.
Alternative hypothesis: neurotypicals and autists have different sets of biases. There are more neurotypicals and being neurotypical is the norm, so neurotypical biases strongly stand out to people who don't have them, even more so than autistic biases do to people who don't have them. In reality, neurotypicals and autists are about equally biased.
