I've never submitted a political story

commenting on others that have seems fair enough

this seems way out of line (and deeply ironic)

maybe you can point out where I slandered something?

You have multiple comments discussing economics, politics of technology, and politics generally. Just look.. they are there.

You are insinuating that this story about politics and economics should not be treated in good faith because the poster is tainted in some way via linking to their comment history. Your post on the other poster's comments seems in bad faith imo. Plus, I find "negative vibe man" comments are not ideal.

you really don't you see the irony here?

well the mods seemed to downweight the story, then the community flagged it (killing it all together)

it seems if anyone's out of place here it's you, not me

(tories bad!)

You contradicted your own terms of debate trying to taint a commenter as "political" while having a history of commenting on similar items. I pointed that out as not consistent using your comments as evidence. Mildly ironic but no.

Negative vibe on isle five officer!! The very idea that technology is not adjacent to economics, politics, and demographics is silly. If the forum mods don't think that then boo!

maybe time to find another website to post your vaulted insights on then

You will continue to intermittently post about politics and economics on here which judging by your comment history you do. I will also. Goodbye.

P.S. how is this a vaulted idea or not relevant to "tech"? We are discussing a country that swims in its own pooh because the government (de-facto) controlled companies turned off or removed sensors at the beaches, misreported data, and couldn't buy chemicals at adequate levels because of Brexit. Seems like almost ALL of the issues described in the post are at the nexus of economics/politics and technology.
