You gotta love these non-technical people who think that any code on a screen is basically the Matrix. It reminds me when I was building webpages in HTML in a coffee shop and a guy saw it and accused me of hacking.
- xrd 5y agoI wish someone could do a family tree and see if their parents and grandparents were the ones accusing D&D players of being satanists.
- whatshisface 5y agoThe 80s was only 40 years ago, you would not need a family tree for that. Also, the final Harry Potter book came out in 2007.

- rbanffy 5y agoIt’d probably find out their parents and grandparents are the same people. And uncles too, most likely.
- effingwewt 5y agoMy own mother did this, to me! I remember those stories vaguely I think one went full-on-nuts and every news station in the country was all of a sudden calling D&D 'satanic game' or some such garbage. When I would read my books or play a session she would get all harpy. It was evil and was going to turn me evil. This from the woman who thought it was OK to be Christian only on Sunday as long as she tithed her 10%. Incidentally I was 'removed' (they asked my mom to please stop bringing the trouble-maker) from our church at like 11 y/o for asking questions no one could answer.

- MattGaiser 5y agoI have had people react negatively to be attending "hackathons." They think I am a criminal. MLH is also blocked by some internet gateway software for being "criminal."
- krapp 5y agoYou might be surprised at how many people on Hacker News believe the stolen election narrative.
- rbanffy 5y agoIm surprised there’s a ton of people who don’t believe in vaccines here…
- vsareto 5y agoI mean, I'm not shocked that people that can fall for flat earth, reptile, and Q conspiracies can't accurately interpret some technical text
