Yes I understand your point. I do think your post is formulated to support your confirmation bias. Like the issues of Crimea and Nazis are different issues, it’s not clear to me why they are clumped together if you’re not using one of them in your conclusions.
Those have lower correlation than say “rise of Ukraine as independent successful country” and “Russia feels compelled to invade”. And to take it from Putins mouth, he said multiple times that Ukraine is not real country, and that thesis survived multiple iterations of his speeches over this year
When I read your post, to me it’s: “Ukraine always had Nazis -> therefore it’s was OK for Russia to... (read more)
I can address the topic of street militias:
some kind of them existed in 2013 - 2014, as an aftermath of the revolution
you would be hard pressed to find any right now, especially armed
local level politicians typically ask different military veteran groups to support their cause & protest, that is always peaceful and is done because of the elevated status of the military in the society.
the ones that used to attack pro-LGBT rallies or Romani people are markedly different groups. These are following in the steps of other European neo-nazi movements and don’t have representation in Verkhovna rada or political influence. Many of those groups are less than 100 - 500 people and
On the topic of monuments, there is an argument to be made about moral equivalence of Russian Communism (and by extension Russian Nazism) and German Nazism, and why the world at large prohibited one but not another. I have no answers to that one though
It would be neutral if there was a second part “Russia and the Crimea question”. Or “Crimean Tatars and the Crimea question”, which I guess is more fair to the minorities. Don’t you agree? Those posts would do well to discuss Crimean Tatars deportation during the time of USSR, as well as NKVD / KGB / communist repressions and cleansing of intelligentsia in Ukraine during 1930 - 1960. Also the recent ones in 2015, were tatars were abducted or killed by Russians.

Executions of other intellectual leaders is the reason Bandera is so used in the current culture. With his numerous (factual) issues he represents a symbol of a military resistance at the time when civil... (read more)
If your first comments on LessWrong are on political topic, moderators may be giving you a bit extra scrutiny.
As a new user I registered to discuss Large Language Models, but it is very difficult for me to accept that LW is giving platforms posts like this one. It’s not at all rational, it’s shockingly biased.
I’m Ukrainian and I welcome anybody to come and validate their assumptions after the end of war. It would be a big update of world model for some
Russian Way is imperceptible to most Western experts because they never lived in USSR. They don't know how corrupt & in shambles the system actually was. As a result "Russia is very strong and powerful" is a stereotype that just refuses to die.

A look at the internal situation in Russia:
(edit): You could try to ask it to decode Morse (both valid & invalid). Other thing to try are substitution or transposition ciphers, which could be close in the concept space of the model
Using the following prompt with GPT-NeoX 20B (via textsynth) generated a quite weird dialogue (although looping at the end; and Morse it generated still didn't make sense), long version pastebin:

I wonder if its understanding of the world is just 2D or semi-3D. Perhaps training it on photogrammetry datasets (photos of the same objects but from multiple points of view) would improve that?
Well, about re-Luigi-ing an AI: these tropes literally exist: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HeelFaceTurn - when bad guy turns good
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Deprogram - when a bad character turns out to be a good character who was brainwashed.
These are also the bread & butter tropes in the superhero comics
