Has anyone corroborated any of this? I was sort of believing it, but then there was that bit about someone stalking her
>If this person is stalking me, their plausible deniability is on fleek! I am not even sure I am being stalked.
Which makes her seem super crazy.

Gerard smells blood and wants to use this to take down movement Rationalism, but it looks like this event falls just under the threshold for even the gutter-tier leftist "journalists" to pay attention: the person who killed herself is a nobody, the people she named are nobodies (also relevant for libel issues), and the one non-nobody caught up in this – EA – is also the one even the leftists have mostly agreed behaved impeccably even by their own leftist standards.

>Congrats to @reddragdiva for apparently making me up to support his own hatred of LessWrongers! I want to congratulate him for putting seven or eight years of work into creating a credible female human who went from “sheltered Tea Party homeschooled straight” to “softhearted lefty bisexual artist with trauma”. I especially love the veracity he included with the moodboards, the stupid poetry, the hyperfocus special interests, and especially the faked selfies.

>I once ran a LARP for Arthur, we've kind of been buddies ever since.
If you actually read the nostalgebraist post she linked there's no such claim, there's not even anything that could be misinterpreted that way:
https://archive.is/QnCrB
The most charitable interpretation I can think of is that this was a roundabout way to complain about him not mentioning her. But blatantly lying because the lie represents how she feels about something doesn't do wonders for her credibility. People are interested in if her accusations are true and undistorted, not in whether they feel metaphorically true from inside her head.

My personal prediction is that it will blow over. In fact, it's already mostly blown over. The attacks are all coming from ideological enemies outside of the community: as far as I can tell there's not much of an internal schism.

"Rationalism" is a cult based around the writings of a charismatic self-identified genius, Eliezer Yudkowsky. Like all cults, it uses a range of obscure language to obscure its dark inner workings - cultists fear and worship 'egregores' (a kind of a mind-god), avoid 'mind-killing', and engage in behaviour such as 'circling' and 'steelmanning'. Suffice it to say that the cult typically preys on intelligent, educated individuals, particularly those with more mental health. On the surface, Rationalism seems to have more in common with a self-help doctrine than a religion, but careful study reveals that core members of the group (in particular the community centred on San Francisco) pray to evil gods birthed in the future in an attempt to avert eternal suffering.
Members are encouraged to give generously to 'charities' run by high-ranking Rationalists, and especially to Yudkowsky's 'charity' - the innocuous-looking named 'Machine Intelligence Research Institute'. The fact that this 'research institute' has produced no fruit for all the money invested into it by devotees is telling.
A splinter group of especially rabid Rationalists, led by notorious antisemite Scott "Stonin' the Kohens" Alexander meshes the apocalyptic millenialism of mainstream Rationalism with the vicious rightwing orthodoxy of the alt-right. This sect refers to itself as 'The Grey Tribe". Alexander - referred to by his followers as 'The Rightful Caliph', has consistently denied that he uses the blood and organs of abandoned infants in rites intended to appease the ancient Carthaginian demon Moloch. A former member of the cult, who agreed to be interviewed on condition of anonymity, stated that:
>"Scott always said it was OK because the babies weren't really sentient. He said it was no worse than killing a nigg- an Easy African. Sorry. Old habits, you know?"
In recent times, a number of former cultists have come forward with stories about life under the Rationalists - including shocking tales of 'cuddle puddles' - actually drug-fueled BDSM orgies. Following the suicide of a prominent former cultist earlier this month, the Rationalists have closed ranks and refused to accept the blame for her death. But the cracks are showing, and those of the anti-cult advocacy group Sneer Club hope that this bizarre, brutal modern-day religion will soon collapse under the weight of its own evil.

Jeese, what a terrifying drone.
I wanted to point out that shitposting about the culture war on the internet is unlikely to be the most effective way for him to attain whatever his political goals are. But I guess it's entirely possible that the "SJW" meme-complex that he holds is so much more virulent that even despite individual carriers being less effective as individuals, the meme overall is more successful than an equivalent "effective activism" would be.
Anyway, I still think I, as an individual, can achieve my goals more effectively than Arthur Chu, because I'm not wasting my time mindkilling myself into a soldier. My brain is too useful to waste time on politics. And, again, as an individual, instead of shitposting on the internet I'd just donate to some lobbyists. "Folk activism" is a waste of time, y'know…

I see your point, bad example. For what it's worth, there are some genuine OG punks out there that are really into anarchism, rebellion and everything else that punk entails, and they absolutely loathe posers, phoneys and and those that treat it as image instead of ideology (where the image happens to trickle down from).
When a man signals/peacocks that he belongs to specific subculture or tribe, there's more of an expectation that he can express authentic commitment to that group, that he genuinely abides by the groups values. Men get tested on this way more. It could even be DnD or some other spergy niche, you must know the minimum level of jargon to have stable communication and interaction.
When a girl joins one of these subcultures it's "tee hee go easy on me silly boys". Can you name any non-gender-specific subcultures/groups that women are known to genuinely embody that group's ideas where men do not?
It's the basis of the girl gamer vs real gamer, femanon vs real anon, girls who code vs real programmers. This is beyond "beliefs as attire", it's about the flanderised representation of another group as fashion, e.g. women who dress "goth" but have none of the internal traits associated with "goth". The only ideology founded by women seems to be feminism, and it talks exclusively about women, women made a group to talk about themselves instead of a productive and creative project outside themselves.
With "female rationalists", I've found them easier to bait emotionally and to dazzle with the jargon than seeing them respond in a way that suggests they have learnt rationality and consistently embody some of its ideas.
