I'm very sorry for offending you by not recognizing that "diversity in musical taste" provides for greater diversity than racial, social, and economic status. Silly me, I've been thinking about diversity all wrong. You're right, HN is very diverse- we have middle class white guys who like Metallica, and others who like show tunes. We have middle class white guys from suburban Iowa, and others from suburban Massachusetts. This is a very diverse website, I was very confused before.
>You care about diversity in things that don't really matter.
Race, social, and economic status don't matter. Musical tastes matter.
This place is so out of touch with reality. I'm glad I moved out of the bay area.
- RingwormOne 9y agoSo you care about diversity in the color of someone's skin but not in what really defines them as a person? Or you think skin color defines people? And that all white people are pretty much the same? You're showing yourself to be quite racist.
- lobf 9y agoRight, recognizing race is one of the most important factors in deciding your status in this country is racist. Pretending race doesn't exist isn't racist. Again, you guys are so laughably out of touch. This is a poe's-law level discussion.
