He’s referencing an old old copypasta.
- ChrisSD 8y agoAh thanks. I'm terrible at navigating twitter.
- JdeBP 8y agoYou could alternatively view it as Twitter being terrible at presenting anything other than the trivial and superficial in a legible manner. (-:
- damnyou 8y agoSwiftOnSecurity uses they/them pronouns as listed in their profile. edit: instantly downvoted to -1. Y'all have some internalized transphobia to examine. I'd like to remind you that if you are an employee in California, repeatedly and deliberately using the wrong pronouns for your coworkers is employment discrimination akin to sexual harassment.
- damnyou 8y agoI replied mentioning their correct pronouns and my post got flagged. Hacker News retains its reputation as one of the more bigoted communities on the internet.
- detaro 8y agoYou edited said comment in a way that breaks the rules in multiple ways, and then are surprised it got flagged? The original comment was fine.
- damnyou 8y ago"the rules" are what cowards hide behind to justify their bigotry. And given that the comment got downvoted to -1 before I edited it, it clearly was not fine according to the Hacker News community.
- ChrisSD 8y agoAll you can assume from that is a couple of people who saw your comment decided to click downvote. Extrapolating from those few people to the whole of the HN community is a bit of a stretch.
- damnyou 8y agoMy retry is sitting at -2 right now.
- sctb 8y agoWhat's happening is hole-digging. Votes are noisy, especially at small values. When we take that to mean something and then accuse the community, they downvote because it's nonsense. This is one reason why complaining about voting is explicitly against the guidelines—it just makes everything sadder and worse. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- damnyou 8y agoAll right let me try this once more: SwiftOnSecurity uses they/them pronouns as listed in their profile.
