>> Note that John O’Sullivan is a zealous conservative commentator of the O'Reilly sort and by spreading this article you are letting him set the narrative, not the marginalized groups he attacks (which he even lists: "[Muslims], Christians, Gays, feminists, [...], ethnic activists").
Okay! I'll definitely not read this. I don't want to let a hateful person set the narrative. If they set the narrative, they win.
- dmazin 12y agoIt was definitely dumb of me to say "read." I meant "spread."
- jshevek 12y agoThat may have contributed to the downvotes. I don't know/understand HN etiquette, but it seems to me that we 'ought' to accomplish such edits with addenda, rather than replacements, so as not to present a misleading context for earlier responses. For me, 'discouraging reading of A' is radically different from 'discouraging spreading A'.
