If you’re looking for irrationality, you’ll find an endless supply on the forums of a cult leader that deemed himself a “Rationalist”. It’s full of people working them into a tizzy on things that might not technically be impossible.

The idea that human level intelligence cannot be exceeded without needing to match those space, power, or materials restrictions is kind of absurd.
Is there anything wrong with Roko’s Basilisk?
