From your comment I get the feeling that you think that an elderly white man does not have the same right to speak as a young black woman.
If that’s the case, I have bad news for you: you are a racist.
If that’s not the case, stop talking about skin color when discussing someone’s opinions. That’s also a tad racist.
- dang 7y agoPlease don't respond to a bad comment with another bad one. It arguably damages the thread more, since the original comment can always be flagged but a flamey subthread usually cannot. This is in the site guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- nisuni 7y agoIn all honesty I don’t think my comment is worse by any means. I just stated that if you consider skin color when judging one’s opinions, then you are a racist. And I stand by my point. Please let me know which of the guidelines my comment broke.
- dang 7y agoOK, I've taken out the bit that said it was worse. It broke the site guidelines by being ideological flamebait. Comments like this are predictable and tedious, and so are the flamewars they feed.
