> You’re comparing appreciating looking at the sky to bestiality.

That’s my point. You think beauty is profound but this is arbitrary and not at all different from bestiality. It’s only your intrinsic cultural biases that cause you to look at one with disdain. Don’t be a snob. This is HN. We are supposed to be logical and immune from the biases that plague other forums. Beauty is no more profound than bestiality. It’s all about what you find beautiful. If you find beasts beautiful then you call it beastiality?

What is so different about finding a beast beautiful versus the night sky? Snobbery, that’s what.

It’s just semantic manipulation and association with crudeness that prevents you from thinking logically. HNers are better than this and so are you. Don’t pretend you don’t get it and that my comparison to beastiality is so left field that it’s incomprehensible. You get it. Follow the rules and take it in good faith like you said yourself.

> The HN guidelines ask you to not engage in bad faith

Fair I edited the part that asks “is this for real” that’s literally the only part.

I also find your dismissiveness of my arguments as “bestiality” is bad faith and manipulative. I clearly wasn’t doing that. Pigs are attracted to pigs that is normal. Humans are not attracted to pigs. That is also normal. I took normal attributes of human nature and compared it to reality. You took it in bad faith and dismissed me which is against the very rules you stated.

Again, please stop telling me what I think. You have zero idea what that is and all your arguments are full of wrong (and frankly unhinged) assumptions. I don’t know what conversation you’re fantasising in your head, but it’s not this one.

> Fair I edited the part that asks “is this for real” that’s literally the only part.

Even if that were true, which I disagree with, that was the very first sentence and set the tone for the entire comment.

> I clearly wasn’t doing that.

That’s not clear in the slightest.

You keep making wrong assumptions and telling other people what they think. You can’t have an honest and productive conversation like that. You’ll never be able to engage in good faith and truly comprehend what the other person is saying until you understand and fix that.
