If it scares you that people are willing to air their discontent about not liking preachy political messages in their entertainment, I'm not sure what to take from that.
Personally I think having a diverse set of views in a public forum was the whole point of having public forums.
- Cipater 4y ago>Personally I think having a diverse set of views in a public forum was the whole point of having public forums. The comment you responded to had a view that was diverse enough for you to comment on it.
- switchbak 4y agoThat person said they were scared by other's views. And implication I took from that: those scary views should not be aired. I'm not interested in having one-way discussions, especially if it's run by "the most scared wins". Clearly there's bounds to that, but the view expressed above was not something I'm interested in, and I don't think I'm alone.
- op00to 4y agoNo, the complaints are about seeing black people and gay people on tv. That somehow makes people sad, maybe because they’re secretly gay?
- switchbak 4y agoThe comment in question is: "Increasing pop politics seemingly shoe horned into everything I'd turn on." It's right here, please go have a read: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31278073 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31278073 They absolutely did not mention of black or gay people. You are straight-up wrong about that. It's nearly impossible to take the content of your message seriously, given the way you mischaracterize their actual statement.
