The number of people in this thread that apparently know the secret, nefarious intentions that Zuckerberg truly has is... Well, not surprising, given that this is the internet and Hacker News. :)

Zuckerberg has a history of being intellectually lazy and making choices that are a net negative for society. There is no secret to the nefariousness. It is right out in the open. He is not a good guy and his response to the overflowing racism and bad faith political content on FB is a giant meh. Twitter showed real leadership. It is Facebooks turn.

Well, this is a thread speculating about the future decade, reflecting on a guy's insights who has a dubious track record, by intelligent people that are in the loop of current tech trends.

  I'm amused by this assessment given how you could pretty much say the exact same comment in reverse. Specifically, between these "intelligent people [on Hacker News]" and a "guy [with] dubious insights", one of these groups has a couple of billion dollars invested in every single one of the topics in the document whereas the other... well, maybe Bill or Jeff or Satya or one of the others reads Hacker News, but I doubt it. :)

This thread is a good example of how HackerNews has become less about analysis and informed commentary, and more about opinions and advocacy. I look at Mark's post and I see him being honest with people about how he believes the world is going to evolve - not necessarily how he wants it to evolve, nor how Facebook even intends to move forward. Everyone is so blinded by their emotional hatred of Mark that they cannot stomach discussing the points he is making.
