Comment on Why are posts about the Geeklist controversy being removed from Hacker News?parent

Well, no, I also mentioned that it was relevant for the startup scene. It involves a startup. There are lessons within to be learned about PR and handling complaints from users. It is of more relevance to startups than "Your boss shouldn't get your Facebook password".

It just seems like there are enough members of HN out there are unwilling to discuss a topic that makes them uncomfortable. Ostrich syndrome, indeed.

Are you seriously suggesting that the topic of sexism hasn't been discussed ad nauseum on HN?

What is your definition of ad nauseum? Are you really suggesting that the Geeklist story isn't worth discussing even once, because it falls under the banner "sexism" and is therefore all talked out?
