So, I'd like to think I'm generally an understanding person, but I don't really follow how my opinions on GitHub censoring the word "retard" in repos (which I have no problem with; almost every use of the word I've seen is vile) impacts my ability to give this article a "fair or understanding" reading?

The author of the article is essentially just lambasting someone that wrote from quite an abrasive and privileged (and often factually problematic) perspective in a blog post. And conflated it with both soylent the company and "tech" and "hipster" culture. And he basically tells them they're going to die because they're out of touch and will be put up on the wall in a firing line.

I find it hard to read that kind of bombast fairly, and even putting that aside, really don't find any kind of insight in the article whatsoever.
