If you're not one, you can't very well call yourself a rationalist tbh.

You really think that? In a subculture that talks about budgeting "weirdness points"?

I'm not actually thinking of normies as "non-NEETs", that was just the normie-bashing funny meme picture I happened to have in my computer.
I mean normies as in, well, normies! Normal people! People who think people like us are weird! People who don't go to imageboards. People who think "x-risk" is a board game! Neurotypicals! People with IQs around 100!

>People who think "x-risk" is a board game!
How aware do you think the modal adult normie is of board games? Sure, boardgame-playing types are closer to normie than /ratanon/ types (who, admittedly, are probably further from normie than other ratadjs), but the Essence of Normie would consider their behaviour odd and atypical.
>People with IQs around 100!
If you really think the rationalist average is 135-145…
(I'm not saying it couldn't possibly be 135-145, I just greatly doubt the rationalist community is so great at recruiting the absolute smartest people that the *average* here is 99th-99.7th percentile. I also seem to run into plenty of rats dumber than me and have a low enough opinion of my own intelligence that those facts are hard to reconcile with 135-145 IQ average.)

At some point you'll hopefully realize that other people are real. All of them. They aren't just props in the story of your life. They've each got their own crazy shit going on, if only in their heads.
The process is supposed to start when you are a toddler and first feel bad about another kid crying instead of just annoyed at the noise, and be capped off by recognizing that your parents are real people sometime in early adolescence.
Good luck.

At some point you'll hopefully realize that other people are fake. All of them. They aren't "real full human beans who deserve empathy n shieeeet" as in the just-world story of humanism. They've each got simple predictable memetic patterns going on, if only in their heads.

Addict them to superstimuli and simulacra, leading them in a dysgenic direction of slavery and domestication. Use associated technologies as the frame for UFAI development. Eventually arrange a deal with them in which they agree to pay for their wireheading by leaving their breeding or replication to the discretion of their owners-benefactors.

We must secure the existence of our people and a future for Autistic children. I won't have to deal with normies, neurotypicals, normalfaggots, or IQ 100s when my chinese robowaifu can pass the Turing test.
