I have no idea where you got the idea that Less Wrongers tend to believe in natural rights. This seems to have come out of nowhere. I don't understand how you infer it from the evidence you presented.
Many LWers believe that FAI is important because an unfriendly AI would likely lead to negative consequences, not because it would violate any natural rights.
In general, your arguments seem completely disconnected from the beliefs conveyed in the sequences and other prominent writings on LW.
