Edit: while I have you, can you please omit swipes like the first part of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25715498, and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25717995? I agree with you about Nietzsche and appreciate the knowledge that you're bringing to such discussions, but if you mix garden-variety internet dross in with it, you're contributing to destroying the commons here. It's really fragile, and we need people to be conscious about taking care of it. I'm sure you wouldn't litter in a city park or drop lit matches in a dry forest, so please don't do the equivalent here.

No, it's not.
> a lot of Silicon Valley hackers have worked on it
No, they haven't.
> well Portland is basically SV
No, it isn't. Just do your research and nobody will correct you.
EDIT: If you'd like, maybe you could clarify your "underlying point" or which "idealistic Silicon Valley hacker" traits you mean to highlight. Nazis have been trying to weaponize Scuttlebutt for years, so I don't get why it's "funny" that MAGA chuds are trying to join now. They aren't welcome.
