And it's like, why is he taking the hot girl?

Why is it taking the hot girl away?

Right?

And it's not because the authors thought that the alien would think that she's sexy.

It's just like sexy is a property of her.

And that's a thing that things like.

Did I do that right?

Yeah, I think importantly, Yudkowsky I think explicitly says that he does – that the author didn't think that the alien thought that.

It just didn't even occur to the author to think what the alien thought.

But I think you make a good point.

Like King Kong, whatever, grabs the damsel for the hero to rescue or whatever.

And she happens to be pretty because she's on TV or whatever.

It could just be a device for the viewer.

And it's not like Kong found her sexy or something, right?

That's true.

I guess there are some really dumb people out there.

Well, and for all I know, maybe if we reversed image searched this picture that's in the post.

Right.

Right.

Were they, though, or were they just the Chuck Tingles of their time?
