Let me guess, you’re a man who worked hard but never quite made it to the top of the class.
And those damn women and minorities (not East Asians of course, just the bad ones) who got higher grades than you, rejected you for dates, gave you weird looks and laughed at your macho arrogance - there’s no way they are as smart as you, right? Must be something else going on…
…it must have been DEI that got them the grades you wanted, the spot at the university that rejected you, the job where you didn’t make the cut…
…or maybe you’re a born loser, and you’re going to live life as a loser, and when you’re old and frail you’ll look back on a pointless life of bitterness, dying a loser.
Please don't respond to a bad comment by breaking the site guidelines yourself. That only makes things worse.
Also, you crossed badly into personal attack here. Please don't do that on HN, regardless of how wrong someone is or you feel they are. You may not owe people who you feel are losers better, but you owe this community better if you're participating in it.
In my defense, I’ve been advocating for accessibility in computing for over 20 years, and reading the original post really enraged me as it goes against all I stand for, hence reacting too strongly here.
