By "runs his mouth", you mean, "says things people like us disagree with"?

This whole "demonize Soghoian" strategy simply isn't working. People who engage in it sound petulant, not persuasive.

My guess is more than half of HN readers would sympathize with his positions.



I've previously had disagreements with Soghoian before, but he's generally reasonable. He's not exactly cartoon villain material.


Generally reasonable? You've gotta be kidding. The guy launches into Twitter rants daily, often blasting away with ad hominems.

On balance, I think he probably does more good than harm for our community. But it's a very close call.


Yeah, Twitter's not exactly a medium that promotes civility.
