Interesting, didn't see this here

I shared because I thought it was an interesting take.

I know a lot of people who feel the same way, but it's not really shared opening; dialog is rarely allowed: flagged, derided, etc (which further enforces the feelings).

Felt HN would potentially discuss.

It reads as a greentext and gets posted everywhere. As far as I can tell it's a troll like any other, no evidence for it's claims, and vocabulary designed to bait people into arguing against it.

Lol well, I’ve witness almost ~100% of this personally and I know many other have. Someone sent me it and said “is someone talking about Xxxx?”

So, I suspect it has more merit than people would like to believe.

Still could be a troll. That’s the art lol

I suspect a lot of people posted it for the same reason this got decent upvotes — people legitimately feel that way.
