Verifying that fragile narcissism is fully incompatible with self-awareness. Experiment complete. Thanks for your participation, mate.

You seem to be using my post as a mirror for the same.

I really have no idea what your strange dialogue in Simpson's-parody English is about or where it comes from, or the need, from me basically commenting "Nick Bostrom is not a genius".

I also have zero clue what you mean by "[T]he whole “smash the patriarchy” movement might overlook that we actually live in a matriarchy, and this is just what it imperceptibly looks like." I've never written anything like this. I work at Google.

A) You did write it, even if it were a joke. Don't be a liar-pants.

B) It wasn't a joke. You called it "fairly troll-ish". It was thus fairly serious. It is your mind child, such as it is. It's okay if you aren't any good at philosophy or deep thinking.

C) Google doesn't do anything serious in Liverpool.

D) Given we have humble intellect and status, let's try being a bit less pretentious and a bit kinder and more respectful. That way, we can make Hacker News and the world at large a more pleasant place :)
