My very point is that it is a partisan policy and a hypocrisy. If pointing that it is a partisan policy is partisan and therefore cannot be said, we are exactly in the same sort of circular "you can't express that opinion" policies than on YT.
- dang 5y agoOk, but your comment failed to disambiguate those two levels. That is, it could be read either as a point about partisanship (which is what you intended), or it could be read as a garden-variety partisan swipe. When there's an ambiguity like that, the flamebait interpretation always wins out in the mind of the median reader, which is what determines the expected outcome of the thread. Therefore, the burden is on the commenter to disambiguate. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&sort=byDate&type=comment&query=disambiguate%20burden%20by:dang https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so...
