Karl Ove Knausgaard Concludes “My Struggle”

By posting literally the most obvious point about a famous book as a snarky one-liner, this comment breaks the site guidelines. They ask: "Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work."

But can you stop going around acting like the police? I have seen you call people out for breaking the rules on many occasions. Please follow the rules yourself and stay on topic. I know my post is also wrong, but I feel you need to be called out on this.

(I'm an admin; sorry that wasn't clear.) It's true that those comments are annoying. They're even more annoying to write than they are to read. But we don't know a better way to semi-preserve the quality of the forum. I wish we did.

'dang is an HN mod: one of his tasks is to call people out for breaking the rules.

I have nothing against Knausgaard's work.

I think it would be better if they actually did name it "Mein Kampf" in Germany, as well as started naming their kids "Adolf" again, because all these dead Nazis currently exert far more control over German people's minds than they deserve.
