Lawrence Krauss, Richard Dawkins and Neil deGrasse Tyson all project a proud, willful disrespect of philosophy, which has been noted and argued about on HN substantively. I'm sure Tyson's Internet superstardom with the Reddit and Imgur crowd has nothing to do with the instant backlash against only criticism of him though, right?

I'm not sure I understand why you're irritated. There's a pox on all of them at HN, and a pox there shall remain.

Controversies about these characters mostly aren't interesting (in HN's sense) whether they're in the key of zeal or the key of critique. Whoever's flagging them is doing us all a favor.
