- Cthulhu_ 2y agoYeah I've seen a few HN people try and defend undefensible things, citing they are "steelmanning"... but nobody asked them to. Same with "playing devil's advocate". It's fine in philosophical debates I suppose, but it's not necessary in a lot of cases. Second, if you are the "playing devil's advocate" type, make sure your post contains your real, own, personal opinion. You can't just go say morally objectionable things and brush it off as that.
