Believe me, I hate nazis/fascist of any kind, but also think that:

  • it is ridiculous to think that every Greek or Roman statue is a fascist dogwisthle;
  • the collapse of Roman empire is far more nuanced that good/bad, I do not argue that it was bad yet it cannot be defended that it was simply good: what came after was Dark Ages named as such not by an accident;
  • why the analogy might be seen as poor, I don't know how talking about AI (maybe somewhat overhyped) dangers of multiple dimensions is actually an advertisement of AI

    I wouldn't compare racial hatred and prejudice lasting for centuries with obesity which is partly and frequently a poor lifestyle choice and not so bothering in life as racial bias. Yes, I am still aware of genetical causes and that poorer people have worse access to a healthy food. But in most cases an individual can do something about it.

    One of the main fucking points of a mathematical proof is to be clear and convincing. If it is not convincing and reducible to simple steps, it's not a proof at all.
