a phrase i find particularly grating is 'spiritual technology' and similar basically unserious engagement with spiritual/religious life from a pedestal of materialistic atheism. an especially egregious offender i've come across is 'chrAIst' -- a brand new, superior™️ psychotechnology to align AI!

@taalumot they tend to dislike hearing it, especially from a Satanic Oriental, so thank you for doing the good work
@pujz Being disquieting to Christians/rationalists (same same) was my favorite shtick, but honestly the AI thing took all the fun out of it, cuz they were just like, “Yes. We know. This is the messiah. This IM transcript right here.”
