I think you're saying "because ① pollution affects bystanders, ② bystanders have standing to complain about pollution, and ③ choosing not to write certain things is like pollution, bystanders also have standing to complain if someone chooses not to write these things". Do I understand that correctly? Can you explain why the choice not to write is like pollution?
- Eddy_Viscosity2 2y agoI see the problem, its 3. I was being more general in equating "the news" with "stuff released into the environment". But 3 implies "stuff not released into the environment" which is not what I meant. PS, How did you do those numbers in the circles? I've not seen that in a HN comment before (I like it). I see sometime people switching fonts in comments, but I hadn't figured out how to do that either.
