Your comments just make me want to write something equally childish like: "Yeah, but who built the cages?"
These back and forth comments just have a way of sucking people in. It's just silly. You're not ready to have a good faith debate. Read back your comment. Was it ever going to convince me of anything? What was the point? I'm stepping away from this conversation.
- cozuya 6y ago"Yeah but who built the cages" is a goalpost shift that signifies you "lost". The point is to dunk on you. You've been dunked. The "conversation" is over. I will give you this: in one way, you are right, I never intended to have a good faith conversation with you and that is because you are wrong.

- cozuya 6y agoMelania Trump is a racist who propagated and never apologized for the "Birther" conspiracy theory that President Obama was born in Kenya. Is HN a place where users need to "Be Kind" to racists, and those who defend racists? Does enabling racism amount for high quality discussion on HN?
