I think it is a remarkable testament to your patience that you continue to treat this guy as if he is interested in arguing in good faith, and not as a hardcore ideologue & culture-warrior.

This guy is one of the most valuable contributors to the site, all the more so because we disagree about so much politically; I have almost total faith that he means what he says, and, especially on politically-tinged topics (also compiler theory), tend to learn a lot from him. Always happy for the opportunity to say that, so thanks!

  Well, in that case I suppose this has actually been a testament to poor judgment on both our parts.

  lol, I will never figure out how you can stan rayiner so much. He's an obvious reactionary and a notorious cherry-picker.

I’ll admit to being a gun nut and originalist, but “breakdown of two parent families is bad” is a completely mainstream position among non-white immigrants in the US.

Hacker News invites paleoconservatives, neoconservatives, reactionaries, fascists, etc. because the moderation team and owners are cryptofascists. It's that simple. To quote Genesis, they know what they like and they like what they know.
