Replying to you rather than the ancestor out of respect for your point.
Is this why you were making personal attacks on me, rather than addressing anything I actually said?
It should be understood that positioning Aurini as a troll isn’t personal. It’s crude politics. Usually when sexism talk comes up it consists of incoherent accusations that the lesswrong is populated by people who have opinions along the lines of those Aurini is presenting. Those allegations are almost impossible to counter with mere reason yet also shouldn’t be left to stand. That leaves me in an unpleasant position. I want to avoid being in said unpleasant position.
The last thing lesswrong needs is for accusations that it is populated by obnoxious sexist bigots to actually have an element of truth.
Do not feed the troll.
