Better read than excerpted in full.
How is this a rationality quote? The main conceit amounts deciding who would win in a fight based on how awesome Monroe happens to find them.
"Let's just seal up Hell and leave it there" = "Let's just accept the good things about death and leave it there". But I see lots of things with LW glasses on at this point, so it could be a stretch. Also just a fun example of seeing problems from a new angle
If I hadn't read Three Worlds Collide, I would very likely not have gotten Black Hat Guy's point in that comic.
To me that seemed as more of a case of,
"Let's flood hell with the ocean, Satan won't escape" = "Let's just put this AI in a box, it won't get out".
