This is Hacker News, so you should probably include a "/s" to indicate sarcasm, because otherwise you'll get a lot of people agreeing with you.

- objektif 3y agoI would say yes few would agree but fortunately HN is still not filled with late stage capitalist idiots.
- Forbo 3y agoPeople get buttmad and downvote you for pointing out manmade global extinction events and daily death tolls from pollution. HN isn't immune from these shitbags. This site has a lot more capitalists than environmentalists.
- p0pcult 3y agoif one includes the "/s" then they get a lot of people arguing that profit is why companies exist.
- _Algernon_ 3y agoThe whole point of sarcasm is that people misunderstand causing funny situations. If you are going to signal it with eg. /s you may as well just say what you mean.
- andy_ppp 3y agoI've just started reading Flowers for Algernon, highly recommended.
