You know, whenever I have a problem with someone on Hubski, which has happened rarely but does happen, I have brought it up with kb; and every time he has counseled me to have faith in humanity, and thus, that specific user. After perhaps a fuck, a glass of wine, and a relaxing walk, but still.

I do not think that contrasting someone who has that much belief in the innate goodness of people with humanity, or becoming human, is an accurate contrast. He is as much about pushing back the darkness as anyone else. He may approach it differently and I get that it grates on you, but it's completely inaccurate to imply he's in any way inhuman or inhumane.
