On the contrary: virtually every story can be framed in terms of opportunities for "analytical thinking", and the only purpose served by hashing most of those stories here is to spark pointless incivility. If we're going to have debates on these stories, I prefer the meta-debate about which stories are relevant to HN over the fight over who hates racism more punctuated by the person complaining about the unfairness of it all.
