Yeah I'm not thrilled to get that particular type of attention but I knew the risks when I clicked "publish" on that particular topic.
Clicked the link out of curiosity, saw that the top comment was some soothing rationale on how it's not unethical to force 3rd world people to clean up after you (under the threat of starvation on the streets) as long as you say good evening to them that makes you a nice guy, then closed the tab again. My weekend is better off not reading the orange site, but even though I wasn't aiming for a particularly literary or poetic form in this piece, it's still a type of validation to know that Scott Alexander readers can't parse my essay style.
