Can you elaborate here? ZeroHedge isn't an opposing viewpoint nor opinion, it's mostly made-up nonsense. Even calling it pseudoscience would be generous.
- GaryBluto 10mo ago> Can you elaborate here? ZeroHedge isn't an opposing viewpoint nor opinion People's worldviews define their opinions, no matter how bizarre or fantastical a worldview may be.
- itroot 10mo agoYeah, I see it as a radical anti-establisment resource. I would not call it a complete nonsence though, for me it's a place where you can "get" thinking of folks who are opposing "the System". So there is some value. I'm not political or activist of any kind. However sometimes it makes sense to get understanding how other people think, so sometimes I read comments here and there. HN has its own bias as well. Usually the quality of discussion here is quite high though.

Only if the 'establishment' involved is, well, reality. > I would not call it a complete nonsence though, for me it's a place where you can "get" thinking of folks who are opposing "the System". No, it's where you can get thinking from crazy people. Actual dissidents are elsewhere.
