For those of us sitting here reading this and thinking it sounds like the ramblings of a madman writing on a public bathroom wall, can someone explain what this is about?
- twic 7y agoI clicked some links and ended up reading [1], and if anything, i understand even less than when i started. Mollamby. EDIT: And the author has another piece featuring none other than Debian Grand Champion of Drama, Ian Jackson!

- shaki-dora 7y agoThat's just what it is: some guy channeling some injury to his ego into an attack on institutions and people he is envious of, masquerading as some sort of heroic political fight. Plus, of course, a sympathetic slice of very online personae who relentlessly complain about "identity politics" and can-we-focus-on-technology-please (case in point: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21307367 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21307367) but consider this guy some sort of model for even-keeled disinterested rationalism.
