> Thank you for admitting that you are vilifying Trump supporters online in a thread about nuance for beliefs you have ascribed to them without talking to one of them

You’re putting words in my mouth.

> you might think someone who could vote for Trump is vile

Please don’t presume to tell me what I think. You don’t know me or my mind.

> What your worldview has in common with theirs is that it is a hard (read: non-nuanced) stance on a single issue.

Oh, don’t worry about that; I have opinions on a whole bunch of issues; this was just a single example of one that I thought was pretty simple and ought to be relatively uncontroversial.

And also, see my above comment re: not presuming to tell me what I think.




Please don't do political flamewar on HN. I've banned the other account, but this is just what we're asking everybody to avoid.

He or she isn't though.

If you look back through their non-political comments then they're pretty standard, interesting, helpful the whole nine yards.

I don't think their contributions to this thread have been great, but it's rarely a good idea to judge people on their political views.
