Are you seriously suggesting that I posted the comment out of a desire to beat my chest, and not from sheer disgust at the ideas that Urbit's chief and backers espouse? Your words are cruel, petty, and unwarranted.
Not to rock the boat, but to what extent is saying "this guy is a toxic white supremacist and we should not support him" permitted? Because I was the first person to even bring it up in the thread, and leaving it unsaid would have been, I think, unconscionable and awkward. I tried to be as diplomatic as possible in my statement, keeping it brief and slinging no personal attacks. My intent was not to start any flame wars; I just think it's critical that we, as a community, don't sweep such uncomfortable facts under the rug. (And frankly, I don't even know which controversies on HN are well-worn. This is the first I've seen of Yarvin in any prominent posting since I got here.)
