Show HN: Devil's Advocate

I've heard that HN has changed, and yet many of the threads I've participated in have an insightful discussion. I've created this account to perform a social experiment - to see whether having a contrarian opinion is still possible on HN.

My intention is to take the opposite viewpoint on every, but in many cases I expect to be arguing against my own beliefs. I'll attempt to avoid being banned (or down-modded into oblivion) by being polite in my dissension and will attempt to include only comments that contain substance.

Sometimes this will simply mean pointing out inconsistencies or logical fallacies, but other times I expect to have radically different ideas about subjects (or at least portray myself that way).

Can someone who speaks contrary to the majority's opinion on HN still survive? Let's find out!
