I think you should leave sarcasm-laden emotional diatribes like this on more mainstream "right vs left" sites like Reddit and Facebook. Responses like this really don't add anything to the conversation and could be said in about 1/5 the volume you used if you omitted the edgy rhetoric.
- KirinDave 7y agoWell, I've been on HackerNews for a long time and if you look at my karma score, the vast majority of that (at least 80%) is from user comment moderation. And this post has a positive score as well. So evidently some folks like the style of writing and find it valuable. Also, it's telling you didn't (and haven't) said this to other non-left points of view on this thread. Nor does a cursory glance of your search history reveal other such interventions. So perhaps I will take your affected objectivity with a grain of salt until we have interacted more and I can take your positive intentions at face value.

- KirinDave 7y agoRather, I don't feel the need to baby obviously disingenuous arguments. That, more than anything else, is the hallmark of aforementioned pseudo-intellectual discussion sites that insist that ritualistic, feigned ignorance of context is a necessary virtue.
