HN Sexism Controversy

While an interesting topic, the author needs to tone down the sexism before it seems like it deserves a place on HackerNews

I disagree with your view of what I posted. (it was not done with a unsubstantive+ragey stance) What I posted was a disagreement with the exaggeration of the alternative point of view they had. (Any article that doesn't agree with the popular ultra liberal women's positive view is "salted by mens rights [insert derogative terms etc]")Being anti-feminist is not a bad thing. It is a conversation that could be had (is it good, is it bad, etc), the topic of the original poster

This article is gender wars bait. I.e. men vs women. Why allow it on hackernews?

You are mostly right. Some of the things people are saying to you are awful and you are rightly calling it out.

It's an article about sexism and women complaining about sexism. This topic seems to be really trendy on Hackernews, judging by the shitstormy comment threads articles like that always generate.

I think people are just sick of the debate where no actual evidence of sexism is being produced. But most probably this was down flagged because it doesn't fit the narrative of social just warriors on HN. The author is saying that women programs are bad.

Looks like the account author privated their account and therefore killed the thread. What was the complaint? How was this article sexist?
