(Rant up ahead, mildly directed at parent, but really directed at the average person espousing parent's view on HN, of which there are a surprising number. so, xkiwi - please don't take it personally, it's not really about you, I'm just unloading frustration).

For your own sake, I suggest you take a serious look at your worldview. You are saying that people on Quora are "obeying a dictatorship" because Quora chooses to "force" them (on their own property, mind you) to use Facebook or Google, which is something almost everyone uses.

Your point of view is so far from the mainstream, and might I add so insulting to the people who use Quora, not to mention the people who built this amazing, free of charge site that so many people love, that I think you won't be able to hold a meaningful conversation with almost anyone else.

And might I add, talking in this way shows a complete lack of empathy with almost anyone else in the world. If your base assumption is that Quora is a dictatorship that people obey, it really seems like you have never taken more than 2 seconds to think about someone else's point of view in your life.
