On the off chance this is a genuine misunderstanding (which, given you indicated that you understood I was referencing slogans, that cannibalism is a nonsequiter to a discussion of HN's political bias, that my initial response to you contained further clarification I was referencing a political slogan, and that you then peppered me with insults and attempted to bait me into an argument, I don't believe to be the case, but I've been wrong before), here is the misunderstanding:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eat_the_rich

> "Eat the rich" is a political slogan associated with anti-capitalism and left-wing politics. It may variously be used as a metaphor for class conflict, a demand for wealth redistribution, or a literal call to violence. The phrase is commonly attributed to political philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, from a quote first popularized during the French Revolution: "When the people shall have nothing more to eat, they will eat the rich".

You do realize that sometimes rich right wingers advocate cannibalism too, just not eating the rich:

Remember, you're the one who introduced the brilliant idea of eating the rich into this conversation, and you're the one who keeps replying even after you said you'd shut up, so you not only took the bait, you baited the hook with rich human flesh yourself!

> You do realize that sometimes rich right wingers advocate cannibalism too -- just not eating the rich

This book looks like satire. I have never met or heard of anyone who discusses "political cannibalism" literally. I think it's vanishingly rare.

> You're the one who introduced the brilliant idea of eating the rich into this conversation

I will not relitigate this. See above.

> You're the one who replied even after you said you wouldn't

Tend to your own knitting.

I'm a little confused why you took the time to respond to an old thread during the course of what looks like digging up receipts on a troll (which I have no complaint with, I agree with what you said about them). This is ancient history in my book.

Is there something specific you'd like me to take away from this? Did you just not like the cut off my jib? I honestly can't tell, I'm getting a chaotic neutral vibe.

ETA: I see, you feel that I am a troll, and you want to call me out for trolling. Well, noted.
