On meta-level, I find it somewhat ironical that LW community, as well as EY, who usually seem to disapprove of oversensitivity displayed by tumblr's social justice community, seem also deeply offended by prejudice against them and a joke that originates from this prejudice. On object-level, the joke Randall makes would have been rather benign and funny (besides, I'm willing to exercise the though that mocking Roko's Basilisk could be used as a strategy against it), if not for the possibility that many people could take it seriously, especially given the actual existing attacks on LW from Rational Wiki. But going back to meta-level, this is exactly what tumblr folks often complain about: what you say and do may not be terrible per se, but it could invoke and support the actual terrible things.

On object-level, I don't want people to have misconceptions about AGI. On meta-level, I don't want to be a stereotypical oversensitive activist, that everyone else believes is crazy and obnoxious.
