It's not obvious to me that the militant feminists/race baiters/safe space people are sociopaths bent on willful dishonesty. I think it's reductive to assume they all have bad intentions.
I disagree with many of their points of view, but it doesn't mean that they are being dishonest. For all you know, I could be the willfully dishonest one here.
But you bring up an interesting point I've been wondering about lately - is the world complicated and full of nuance to be debated ad infinitum? Or is truth actually quite simple, with the source of complexity being only those who would cloud the truth with bias and/or willful dishonesty?
- sukulaku 11y agoYour comment made my Spidey-sense tingle, so I looked at your history and found out you "like crime movies/drama for the allure of ruthless power" and work in the financial industry.. You're an interesting case though. Your HN comments are clean - no sophistry or trolling - so I guess you have your fun elsewhere. I've been wondering if there's such a thing as a "benign sociopath", but it's not like I could trust you even if you claimed to be one. I hope so, but so far I'm leaning towards "No".
