Oh, Irony.
Those people in graves? They were put there by material impacts. Serious material impacts. That Serious People do pay a lot of attention to. Because the consequences are real, unambiguous, and repeatedly demonstrable.
- mistermann 7y agoI'm not sure I see the irony. Nothing you've said is contrary to what I've written. Perhaps there is some sort of a miscommunication here....have you somehow reached the conclusion that I've asserted that material reality doesn't exist, or is unimportant? Meta: Oh my the throttling is especially strong today, I wonder if the "too fast" algorithm got a little fine tuning to reduce the amount of wrong think getting through the filter. While we lack the ability to articulate a defense or substantiation of our religion, we more than make up for it with the vigor to downvote, on a platform that censors those with dissenting opinions.
- Retra 7y agoThe irony is in your own self-confidence, and the idea that strongly-held beliefs are beyond criticism, but that the author's are somehow not.
- dang 7y agoWould you please stop posting such antagonistic comments to HN? You've done it a lot. That's a drag, and it's not in the spirit of this site. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
