Please keep your conspiracy theory propaganda off of HN. You're a danger to the world we live in. Ty.
Haven't we learned that dismissing or insulting people isn't going to change their opinions but rather just push more people over to their side?
People just casually reading through might be turned off by it, but looking at any of the data will prove deadcast to be right.
People can believe in crazy conspiracy theories in one part of their life and be perfectly normal in the rest of their life, so it's not a universal condemnation of the poster. But it's a huge waste of time for anybody to watch those YouTube videos unless they make a study of conspiracy theories or the art of deception or scientific cranks themselves. So in that regard, saving 90 minutes of a persons life is a kindness.
However, by being aggressive and dismissive, we are insulting people that are on the fence, as well as the opposition. They will feel stupid and will see the other side as being more reasonable and accommodating. That is why I say that this kind of comment is not useful. It's actively pushing people in the center towards the other side.

This is a scientific lecture, given by a professor. I found it very interesting. Why does it threaten you so much?
You wrote: "Why does it threaten you so much?"
This is a classic aggressive move, no-one has claimed being threatened, they have instead pointed out useful information about this obvious fraud.
As you have been on HN indeed a while, may I ask you that you justify this "Why does it threaten you so much?", or go away?
Thank You

The above person is saying he threatens the world, and as a resident of such world, is also being threatened.
