We don’t need to turn HN into another echo chamber. You can read something that doesn’t just parrot your own beliefs back at you once in a while. You’ll be ok.

- aklemm 5y agoLuckily I didn’t suggest any such thing. Here’s a chance for you to reckon with whether you’re being intellectually honest. I suggested blacklisting a source with a history of intellectual dishonesty, some of which was picked up right in this thread. What are you suggesting?
- imgabe 5y agoI’m suggesting we don’t blacklist anything. If there’s something dishonest you could be specific about exactly what and why instead of making demands based on unsupported assertions. I didn’t find anything intellectually dishonest about this or anything else Weiss has written or published. You keep acting like you can just make these statements and they’re self-evidently true. If you want anyone to consider what you’re talking about you have to, you know actually make a case and present an argument and evidence, not just declare things like everyone is supposed to automatically agree with you.
