About hiringmanager

So, I made the mistake of outing myself on hacker news, gay and not a leftist. I'm getting harassed, naturally, and I know that the moderators of this site will not tolerate anyone who isn't strictly PC. Given past experience, dang et. al. will engage in harassment themselves.

So I'm deleting my password since I can't delete my account.

I've responded to every reasonable response to my comments. That will have to suffice.

A shame this site has become so anti-intellectual.

    "Try not to present unsubstantiated quotes as fact." The irony of that statement is lost on you. Reality is you guys can call trump a racist, and attack me for being gay and all th…

    No, they are not. Read the pre-amble to the bill of rights. It makes it clear the rights are broad and pre-existing for the Bill of Rights and the Bill of Rights merely clarifies. …

    Right, which is why given there is no enumerated power clause giving them one the federal government has no power to regulate marriage. The problem is, the states legalized gay mar…

    You didn't bother to read my comment, and so, for instance, you lied about who I am supporting. And apparently I triggered you to the point that you didn't even respond on the poin…

    IF by "in theory" you mean "under the constitution" and by "but" you mean "but in practice" then I agree with you completely. That is my point. In this area and many other areas of…

    First off, thanks for a civil and reasonable response. Yours is the FIRST one I've seen reading the responses ranked by vote. This means Hacker News members upvoted insulting and s…

    You really need to stop confusing the opinion of a propaganda site for reality. Shame on you for being so completely patronizing and such an asshole as to imply that I haven't spen…

    First off, you're linking to wikipedia. All even vaguely political pages on wikipedia have been put thru the hard left censorship test (just like everyone on this site who isn't ha…

    She gets no credit for pretending to be pro-gay rights after the fact. IT's not flip flopping its pandering. Trump doesn't pander. He doesn't care about gays much he's not courting…

    You two don't seem to realize that the whole "kenyan muslim" thing -- birtherism and secret muslim- were campaign tactics used by Hillary. So, will you be consistent and say Hillar…

    Nobody opposed Obama for being black. Not even racists in the south. They couldn't care about that because they were too upset with the policies he proposed. The only people talkin…

    Republicans were not opposed to Obama because of his race, though for the past 8 years that has been the excuse to avoid talking about the issues. And once again, Liberals are not …

    Oh, I'm persuaded- just look at the actions of W and Obama - both moved the presidency closer to dictatorship. As for elections not being legitimate, that clam was made repeatedly,…

    Your comment is a lot of projection of why people might support Trump. I'm not a fan of Trump, and my vote would go to Gary Johnson, but I hope Trump wins. Here's why: 1. I'm gay. …

    I can say that the media took a sharp turn around 2000-2001 era, especially after 9/11. The rise of 24x7 news outlets and the internet (which has killed journalism in newspapers fi…
