alt Hacker News> Your example didn't fit the evil-bogeyman narrative you were aiming for
What in the world are you talking about. If anything, I wasn't sure if recollecting that anecdote was minimizing the harm of being surveilled constantly. The last thing I expected was being accused of an "evil-bogeyman narrative."
> Sorry if I was unclear there.
Yes, thanks for clarifying. Now I understand that this has nothing to do with me or what I wrote and is 100% projection on your part.
> What in the world are you talking about.
You used the words "If you're going to be surveilled 24/7, at least you gotta make it work for you."
The implication being quite clear you were inferring it was only possible in China's surveillance state, when it was not.
How about we cordially agree to disagree and move on ?
