I'm sure there's quite a few people who think the OP is terribly offensive, and are appalled at the insinuation it wouldn't be downvoted or moderated.
Edit: The fact that your post got flagged faster than the OP on the other hand does reinforce your point and reflects very badly on HN.
- DanielleMolloy 10y agoI know that plenty of these people exist. But the anti-fem crowd outweighs them right now, once more. At least when looking at these votes. This is worrying since, after all, this shapes the discussion, the atmosphere here and the minds of people with yet to stabilize opinions.
- gcp 10y agoI edited my post. You were, however unfortunately, completely right.
- l33tbro 10y agoI, probably like a lot of others, took this post as a tongue-in-cheek joke. I think we're all mature enough to handle it, as the humour comes from how offensive the joke is and not from some universal truth behind the statement. If it actually was meant as a serious comment and is being upvoted, then that's truly fucked up and would make me seriously question this forum. But I'm giving benefit of the doubt.
