At this point, I've presented a handful of fairly straightforward hypotheses about cause and effect. They could be wrong, but it's on you to show that they're actually self-referential. There is no amount or kind of other people's opinions that will make them so.

Your opinions do not automatically turn into credible “hypotheses”…?

There is no such mechanism.

If there was then the vast majority of political debates on HN wouldn’t even exist.

  • Who said a hypothesis is automatically credible? Not me.

    • If they’re not credible… then why would any one care…?

      Readers are just going to assume it’s random noise, or at least indistinguishable from noise, from a rando on the internet.
