Replying to nobody

You’re serious aren’t you?

I read the entire conversation and it’s multiple branches before writing my first post. Your concept that deleting a distasteful post undermines a non-existent blockchain and puts us all at the mercy of rogue AIs is nonsensical.

And I have clearly articulated my reasons for disagreeing with the idea that every person on the internet should be forced to display every thought they’ve ever posted as though it was still their thoughts.

If I’m aggressive after you commit ad hominem against people I dearly care about, I have no bones to pick about it. I have not lowered the standards of my argument or rhetoric in response.

Maybe we should hold people accountable for their pasts . . . subject to explanations of course.

You know . . . sort of like . . . in real life.

I agree with accountability. I just believe it doesn’t require continuing to display your past. We apply differing levels of scrutiny to people at different levels of responsibility right? At a high level, these things tend to still come out, regardless.

That’s my opinion though, based on values I expressed elsewhere in the thread. There is a solid argument that I think can be made for both sides.
