It's kind of telling of how much Hacker news moderation has fallen off when the only comment adding any real discussion (aaron695) is down voted into oblivion while lame jokes get up-voted.
It seems hacker news isn't ready, or perhaps just not capable of handling this discussion. And yes, the jokes are low-effort juvenile and uninteresting.
The whole claim is suspicious; what comes next? "Did you know you can get pregnant from sitting on a toilet seat?". Ridiculous.
A terrible shame how HN shadow bans people. Wouldn't be using it if I didn't remember that this is a site operated by ycombinator with objectives other than facilitating an open and and inclusive social network. Violates the basic principle of decency on how you should treat others the way you want to be treated. i get why and accept it in a way, doesn't mean I like it.
