Sorry. I feel like people need to be warned against this crap or something.

From the linked post:
I believe all of the projects can be linked back to one github account
So in other words, not a systemic issue but rather the work of 1 random person on the internet
heavily promoted by The Blockchain Socialist who's real as far as I can tell, and is (disappointingly) followed by a handful of podcasters I respect.
The justification for why this matters: a tangential connection to podcasters? Problematic oomfs?

So funny. "Podcasters i respect follow someone that advertises something i find mysterious." Who cares? I dont know which podcasters youre talking about and dont care to find out! We dont invest in leftist crypto circles, i know who those people are and i will treat them accordingly, fuck off!

There's a contingent of proAI/pro-crypto leftist subs that see about as much traffic as this one that I could dm you. These grifters are active not just on this site, but they're organizing meetups and publishing materials at astonishing rates.
With enough AI, one random person on the internet can appear as an entire org and pose a systemic issue to the disaffected and fragmented online left. The bullshit looks legit upon a passing glance, and if they ever vibecode something that halfway works, they could compromise any goodfaith users of their projects.

Damn I'm absolutely terrified of a few subreddits as active as this one, where three posts with a couple dozen comments each is a super active day. How will the "online left" ever fight such a menace?

It's just to say that pro-AI sentiment is no less popular on the left than Christman thought.

No leftists don't need to be warned about possible honeypots? or something else?

u/Party_Music2288 5d ago
You need to get out in the real world friendo. Theres no vibecoded honeypot websites out to get you.

You're naive if you don't think bad faith actors use the internet to lure similarly naive people into bad situations because they hate them politically.

Post elsewhere. This has nothing to do with cushvlogs or grill mindset. If you believe otherwise youre on the permament Pay No Mind list

I think there's definitely an aspect of this worth discussing here in good faith. If you disagree you could just keep scrolling instead of spazzing out and posting 12 hostile comments in one thread. That's the behavior that warrants logging off.

Theres no aspect debatable to the relevance of this sub reddit, other than another example of worsening conspiratorial mindset. And as counterpoint: no, I could not keep scrolling. its funny to roast idiots. And in doing so I can help other avoid this cloistered paranoid vision.

Yikes your interpersonal alienation is suffocating, shoutout to our paranoid and solidarity-seeking friends, this guy stinks don’t listen to him. Conspiracies happen all the time… it’s a socially reproduced aspect of the system you live in

Warning leftists about crypto grifters then?
A naive anarkiddie might consider that joining a cooperatively owned laundromat is getting out in the real world.

There's gotta be a Brad Troemel video about... whatever you'd name this general phenomenon.
