Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

yeah don’t come back on an alt you fucking moron

I don’t give a shit about trans people

that much is clear, you use trans folks like a fucking cudgel to make a shitty point. but I also don’t believe this:

I was talking about the right wings nonsense.

given you seem to be a bitcoin right-libertarian at best. it’s time for you to fuck off, again

presenting a DM from someone who absolutely doesn’t have internalized transphobia, never heard of it:

So I’m gonna reach out and say that you hastily misunderstood “and that shit about trans people”. I’m talking about the hate speech from the right wing. Keep me banned though that community is full of people who really have a low level reading ability.

when a libertarian-presenting shithead with not particularly deep political takes posts “it’s a distraction just like the bullshit about trans people” with no other qualifiers, it’s absolutely understood as a dogwhistle for “people need to shut up about trans issues”

and if I’m wrong about that? using trans folks to make your bullshit points is still fucking transphobia. don’t do this shit. it’s fucking concerning you can’t understand that.

“keep me banned though”

the fuck? they thought a pestering third-avenue dm would have resulted in a different action?

“that community is full of people who really have a low level reading ability”

absolutely fucking perfect, 300/10, no notes

what the utter belligerent fuck

I can’t tell whether their intended point with that last one was “I said all the dogwhistles and none of you agreed instantly!”, or a genuine intent at stating that there was a perceived shallowness in our communal reading comprehension

and either case just makes no goddamn sense whatsoever, what the fuck
