It's ridiculous, he isn't even a CCP member. Y'all should be ashamed of yourself to put any amount of ideology to someone whose whole work in life is to produce more food, so people don't starve.
- dang 5y agoThis is a case of the contrarian dynamic: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sort=byDate&type=comment&query=%22contrarian%20dynamic%22%20objection%20by:dang https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor... I agree with you that the commenters who took the thread into nationalistic and ideological flamewar have broken the site guidelines shamefully, but this does not characterize the thread, and certainly not the community. The opposite is the case, which is how a comment like yours, castigating the comments, ends up in an ironic position at the top of the thread. There are many explanations at the above link. I'm going to mark this subthread off topic now.
