Well sure. Poor depends on where you are too. Poor in an American city can still be rich compared to poor in a very poor country. I don’t think that negates the point though.

Does ‘lazy’ and ‘stupid’ also depend on location?

i.e. at a conference of neurosurgeons perhaps the vast majority of the HN userbase, including perhaps everyone commenting here, would be considered ‘lazy’ and ‘stupid’.

If it’s fine to refer to people in this manner, depending on their physical location, then I think it would have some pretty big implications.
