Well, then this approach stands against everything I thought HN represented. I have discussed things I very much don't want to happen before here and the "I don't even want to see your side, I just don't want this thing to happen" has never seemed to me like a good tactic - it just doesn't get anyone anywhere. I've been convinced many times to change my mind on HN(and I hope I have changed some minds too) but that's just not possible if the other side isn't engaging in the debate. And if not for the debate, what are we even here for?



shrug not everyone thinks the same way - about topics or meta-topics.

I'm not trying to be nasty or anything - I just vehemently don't want what you're trying to say is a good thing. It's akin to me not wanting my right leg chopped off, and someone trying to persuade me to listen to the arguments on both sides. No thanks; I want both my legs - or in this instance... I want my unsullied app-store.
