Posting a comment about idiots who post comments. Of course HN is not technically a news site but still....
I would like to see more quality on news comments. For some perverted reason I enjoy reading political discussion (yes, I agree, it is a waste of time), but this is usually marred by the vast majority of comments being mindless, repetitive and full of hatred. I already know Obama is a Muslim Communist Homosexual who wasn't born in the US and is out to destroy America. And I already know the Koch brothers are out to destroy the last vestiges of women's liberty by buying up the government and polluting our environment. (please don't make me explain sarcasm) I yearn for some serious informed reader opinion and discussion on news stories. Hopefully the Mozilla effort helps with this.
Is this some kind of post-narcissistic cognitive dissonance?
