#3> Because of this, I am sorry that I must rescind your invitation and I will not be able to accept or include your talk at the conference. My apologies if this causes you any inconvenience.
At least give a straight apology without mealy-mouthed "if..."

#4Coming soon: left and right wing tech conferences.

#5Interesting -- another discussion of this incident was at the top spot of HN some 30 mins ago, and was flagkilled.
Is it that we're not interested in discussing it, or only interested in discussing it if certain people / viewpoints are not allowed?

The "No Voice, Free Exit" response: Hopefully right next to each other, dutifully segregated with freedom of movement maintained between each.
Edit: Now, certain of the neo-reactos are hyper-cautious about the effects of entryism, which the above scenario would seem powerless to prevent, but so long as public displays of political identification have no effect on the actual behavior of the governors in the NVFE world the only thing for agent provocateurs to enter would be social circles, whose burden of maintaining memetic purity under fire would not be substantially different from the present, with even less down-stream stakes (as the strengthening or dissolution of such societies would not change sovereign policy).

Pretty sure that the concensus is that the author of that submission is insane and trying to read his screed as something coming from a mentally healthy person is a waste of time.

#8I wonder - suppose someone Alex Miller agreed with, but who also caused controversy, was met with opposition by folks who disliked her.
For example, suppose a bunch of gamergate types were to complain about Brianna Wu giving a purely technical talk about pathfinding and AI. Would all the folks who are so quick to defend Strangeloop also defend it in this case?
Somehow I doubt it.

Read it as a non insane person, found it a little rough around the edges but still a perfectly valid and relevant collection of statements. It's a sad world, one where anything that steps out a little bit of the approved "think here" zone is automatically flag killed.

I agree that submission was more than a little out there, but it's strange how little impact this event has had on HN, given the subject matter. Maybe this submission will break through.
