Welcome to your very own filter bubble.

  I'm not sure what to make of your comment. It it some new clothes of middle ground fallacy? Should I give equal consideration to every opinion, no matter how outlandish? Do I have to read from Moon hoax people just because I watched a SpaceX launch or flatearthers since I clicked on NatGeo piece last week?

    Oh look another "the moon landing was real" guy. ^ See what I did there? I made a comment on the Internet, and called into question the legitimacy of your comments. Anyone can do it! So what we really need is HN to moderate our comments to filter out comments like yours so that we can just read the truth without having to filter out the garbage. I don't want to hear about how you think the the earth is round just because I'm on a NASA thread. One thing for sure is this is HN's fault.

      Edgy a.f., but what any of that wonderful rant has to do with my original point?

        Sorry, I assumed a lot of things there I think. I gathered from what you were saying that you were falling with the popular opinion that Google should filter out "fake news" from its search results (or at least the focused results). So from that perspective, I was trying to draw parallels on how silly it is to demand such a thing.
