I've been on HN for well over 10 years. I literally volunteered for Obama's 2008 and 2012 campaigns, and my comments in that time period clearly show my politics. I taught free web scraping workshops at the Center for American Progress to journalists back then. None of my policy preferences have changed. What's changed is the frothing at the mouth radicalism and moralizing of the team I used to support.

I'm not religious, and hate religious radicals, but ideologues act identically, just with secular idols. I didn't see that until I watched what the leftist ideologies did to the quality of life in two places I used to live in:

SF and Boulder.

I'm a 2012 Democrat, which makes me a fascist to a 2026 Democrat.

You ARE a religious radical.

You have made a false claim. What is your evidence that I am religious, let alone a religious radical?

I mean, if we're going to make accusations based on perceived political tribal allegiances, I can say to you with equal certainty that you're a neo-Marxist.

Of course I don't know that. And you don't know anything about me.
