:) Your comment must be something that came out of an AI bot: right down the middle, ambiguous to the max. Saying nothing with so many words :) and with the right amount of righteous indignation. Love it! It proves my point actually.

Let me simplify it for you. People espousing hate because of their trash opinions that have already been consigned to the dustbins of history are not going to have their crappy thoughts entertained by those who have moved beyond that stupidity.

  It is obvious that you guys on the left share the same manuals, since you also come up with the "history's dustbin" and "trash opinions". You learn your words and hammer them consistently. At least you get props for that. :) No pressure to exhibit coherent and consistent argumentation.

    There is no argument, racism and sexism are bad ideas that were entertained widely in the past and are not up for debate anymore as potentially positive influences or the correct way to consider the world. I could have been referencing chattel slavery and your words would be currently for it. You can take whatever you like from my statement (and clearly are) but you calling me "the left" and pretending I was indoctrinated by some entity indicates your mind is as closed as you intimate mine is.

      Please don't post this sort of tit-for-tat, even when someone else is (or seems to be) wrong and posting bad comments. It only makes the thread worse.

    Would you please stop using HN primarily for political and ideological battle? Doing that not only goes against HN's mandate—intellectual curiosity and thoughtful discussion—it actively destroys those things. We have to protect HN against this, and for that we have the 'primarily' test I just described, i.e. when accounts use HN primarily for this, we ban them.
