That’s quite a leap to assume I was feigning interest. And frankly, it seems quite rude for you to do so when I’m following common LessWrong practice.
However, it can feel really irritating to get downvoted, especially if one doesn’t know why. It happens to all of us sometimes, and it’s perfectly acceptable to ask for an explanation. (Sometimes it’s the unwritten LW etiquette; we have different norms than other forums.)
I was, am, and will continue to be (since no one has responded) very interested in why people thought that post was of poor quality. In fact, in my request, I considered leaving out the part about Rand, but did not, because it was what I was thinking—it would be quite hypocritical for me not to be honest about it, given the context.
