Living Denmark, do you have a dog in the fight?
Living in Denmark, what experience do you have with a constitution that prohibits state religion?
Posting things that are going to make people upset is a trolling behavior.
Not saying your post was trolling, only pointing out it was flagged dead by the community.
Maybe because there’s plenty of internet — as in almost all the rest of it outside HN — where people can’t wait to engage on the topic.
- bryanrasmussen 4y agoI'm thinking in your world people who live in one place have only ever lived in that one place? >Posting things that are going to make people upset is a trolling behavior. ok but I didn't expect anyone to be upset by it, But I guess some folks are more delicate than my expectations. >Not saying your post was trolling, only pointing out it was flagged dead by the community. ok, the community did it.
- brudgers 4y agoIt’s not a matter of delicacy. It is a matter of not being intellectually interesting in practice…I mean it was posted to advance your it’s-important agenda. Like I said, you can go to Facebook, Twitter, or Reddit and get your fix.
- bryanrasmussen 4y agoyou could also go to those places with that style of argumentation, but pot and kettle.
- brudgers 4y agoNot really because those places encourage the sort of engagement the story facilitates. HN discourages it. That’s my point. On HN removing what might be mistaken for trolling is a matter of good taste and calling it “delicacy” doesn’t change that. It just adds a layer of irony to the question.
