Pretty cool to dig in but distraction for something else?

> distraction for something else?

The list is endless. Obvious distraction.

Are you saying that if you were to dig in to this, you would forget about other things?

These distraction comments always sound a little condescending to me. They are all over Reddit and it's a bit of a bummer to see it taking off here.

Everything is a distraction from the fact that our politicians are all corrupt millionaires and we're effectively a country run by an oligarchy. Literally everything else is a distraction from this, to keep the machine going as long as possible, before a revolution takes place (which might happen without our lifetime, if we look at recent events).

If the full extent of the distraction is a 3 minute segment on cable news (and this HN submission), this is a complete failure of a distraction attempt.

I can't tell if comments like this are serious or rage bait.

I will tell all from an isolated account to protect it from karma assassination if this post gets 10 or more upvotes.

You can read my “sanitized” past threads to get an idea, though the full details are things that will get me immediately banned and I’m tired of trying to do the right thing to the ire of every hypocrite who wants to know yet hates hearing things they don’t want to know.

No upvotes, no dirty secrets.
