Lesson learnt: Much better to defend slavery without ad hominem than use a bad word.

The real sin here is to post unsubstantive comments and get involved in tedious spats. Please don't do that.

Well,yes.

HN is one of those places where, as frustrating as it might be, the rules of discourse encourage thoughtful interchange. Here, we at least have the hope that we can be educated or enlightened, and in some cases we may be able to show others the errors in their thinking in a manner that doesn't close off communication.

You allowed yourself to be trolled into going on tilt in this thread. Please don't let that happen again. It makes for tedious flamewars.
