That’s an interesting reaction. Are there also some left leaning views that don’t deserve respect?

For starters:

* anti-vaccination * anti-gmo

I have a few others, but it saddens me to admit I don't have enough faith that HN is free speech forum.

No, he's probably afraid of someone playing Internet Detective against him for his audacious behavior of going against the currently-approved orthodoxy... and then doxxing him and his employer and starting a manufactured outrage campaign on Twitter until he gets fired.

You literally just proved my point with your response.

I'm not following you? Is the point of your post that liberals can hold bad views(which I agree with) or is your point that you might be criticized? If it's the latter then I think that in fact you have proved my point - that holding back your opinions here is stupid. I guess it could be some mix of the two, but wouldn't that make the other point just some tool for you to express that HN is left leaning? What exactly is wrong with that (other than, you know, someone might disagree with you)?

And if you think HN is left leaning...I think that's insane. Just look at the comments here, read about you the blind libertarianism in almost any other comment section here. Are you kidding!?

In any case, I can't see how I "literally proved your point" unless the point of your post was something other than what it is overtly- and if that was your point then I still think being afraid of being criticized here is stupid.
