meta: i really did not expect there to be such a negative opinion of people who ride motorcycles on hackernews but this is the second post in a few days where people feel a need to (and are for some reason, very comfortable) very intensely malign all motorcyclists for the perceived slights of some motorcyclists.
it's pretty gross behavior/rhetoric. i don't ride motorcycles but i know enough not to apply the specific in regards to the general.

- ikesau 1y agoI have no strong feelings on motorbikes one way or the other, but also try to avoid downvoting posts when I disagree with them. It's a harder urge to suppress when I feel strongly about the subject though, and so it's possible that this is just a minority of people who are disproportionately represented because the rest of us don't care enough to make generic pro-motorbike posts in response.
