Do you actually believe that?

I mean, do you actually believe that I think the Hyperloop is extremely important, criticism of it must be quashed at any cost, and this YouTuber will just have to be one of the broken eggs?

I'm serious. Is that... is there a part of your brain that what you just said actually makes sense to?

Is it possible in your universe that I've just expressed my actual feelings? And now we're having a big argument about my actual feelings? Even though at this point I doubt you even know what my actual feelings are?

No, I think GP is suggesting that you have some other sacred cow, and you consider the "quashing" of technical arguments about other topics to be acceptable collateral damage in protecting it.

And yet for some reason, while I've barely so much as mentioned politics, you can't seem to stop talking about it.

If you think I am projecting bias in my comments, you're more than welcome to note it. Unless... is it possible I am not the only one with a sacred cow?

[kd0amg]

You were the one who brought up politics as a reason one might prefer to avoid watching the video.

[thringsaround]

Yes, politics is a reason one might prefer to avoid consuming some piece of media, including this one.

In fact I think you have, for the first time, identified the entire content of my original comment :)

So where's the part with the cow, again?

That was the political objection to a video about the viability of hyperloop that you're so reluctant to explain to us.

[thringsaround]

No political objection to that video that I am aware of.

Nothing to explain.

Just what I said the first time. Sorry to be such a boring adversary.
