If you’re part of some group (e.g., OSS contributors), and a mass media propaganda company, like Wired, which is run by a Vanderbilt, comes along and starts saying things about “this poor lil feller is being abused”, etc., you should be extremely worried; they work for somebody who’s coming after you.
The first step in taking advantage of a group else is convincing that group that they’re victims.
- throwaway1723 6y agoWell my friend, the soil where you're trying to plant your sensible words is just totally barren. Here on HN you'll most probably face feedback only from those who work exactly for somebody who's coming after some group as you say, or zealous dupes who follow the former for free. And that feedback will never be positive. When there are only vipers and toads in a barrell, warm-blooded creatures are few and go by throwaway accounts :)

- gonational 6y agoWell I at least found one sensible person! Thank you for your reply.
