Yep, I still wouldn't change my moral position from the other day you're complaining about. Posting my beliefs here doesn't mean I'm looking for someone to convince me to change my mind. I'm stating my beliefs!
- hn_throwaway_99 4y agoTo be frank, if you're shouting "Hey everyone, I'm so sure of my beliefs that nothing is going to change my mind", good for you, but nobody cares. There are plenty of other places where you can broadcast your obliviousness to new information. HN is not one of them, given that "curiosity" is highlighted as a prime motivator for this site.
- thomastjeffery 4y agoWhy state your beliefs? Are you hoping to convince someone else to change their mind? How arrogant. Or are you simply shouting into the void? We are not the void, and we don't appreciate the shouting.
