I can’t make this shit up. The dude has published many books and found people who actually believe it all… If this startup thing doesn’t work out, maybe I’ll just start a cult. :) Edit - The second paragraph was a bad attempt at a joke. Don’t start cults. Fuck David Icke.
> If this startup thing doesn’t work out, maybe I’ll just start a cult. :) I know you’re not being serious but unfortunately many people are in this kind of thinking. All over society are movements and groupthink driven by a small group of people that realized that you can get a whole lot of money and power by making people believe outlandish things.

I think it’s puzzling for some of us that someone might be so apologetic and deferential for speaking their mind in a text forum - this is what we’re all here for, free association; someone’s post reminds you of David Icke and projection of meaning, by all means tell us all about it. edit: I’m not the person you’re replying to

Could you expound on this? I’m afraid I don’t quite understand what you are saying
It sounds like David Icke. If you really need someone to expound on this, you could read the source but we’re both on HN and likely reasonably similar. Can I give you some loving advice?? Forget this. There’s nothing good in Icke. I’ve seen way too many brilliant hackers get sucked into David Icke’s bullshit on their way to a crash. If you still really need closure, I can sum it up as the royal family, the elite and…
All kidding aside, lunatics. Just reading his Wikipedia page (I'll plug it once more [1]) sheds enough light in the BS. Though, as long as you take it for what it is (fiction, comedy, propaganda?) its all good entertainment. Problem is, for most followers, it isn't entertainment... there's probably hordes of people not using safe medication, birth control, vaccines because of fellows like this :-(
