Sure, ... unless the person behind the “Denis Petrov” nom de guerre is another Alexandra Elbakyan.

Why is that bad? From searching, she is behind sci-hub?

There's no suggestion that would be a bad thing.

Just highlighting the flaw in your assumption that the anonymous person behind this is male.

The way you phrased it definitely made it sound like you were implying it was a bad thing lol

That'd be the way that you read it, if they were another Alexandra Elbakyan (or Joanna Rutkowska, or Stephanie Wehner, or ... ) then they clearly wouldn't be a King among Men.

Just as I wrote.

The issue is more that your comment can be seen as a respond to the /last/ sentence of the original post.

It reads to me same as xereeto said. That's why I asked. Maybe think about that? Do you have some difficulty in interactions?

Assuming Russian looking spelling, Alexandra is a female name and Denis is a male name.

No.

I do have 40+ years of observing commenters on internet forums assuming unknowns are male by default.

Maybe think about that?

Only to those unaware of who Alexandra Elbakyan is or to those that chose not to investigate.

For those aware the juxtaposition twixt { King of Men } | { Woman who created massive scientific paper archive } tends to dominate.

But sure, not everybody reads things the same way.

No, it is due to the way you phrased the question.

It was a statement, not a question.

That suggests the deeper issue might be language fluency, English can be difficult to parse.

Did Alexandra Elbayan do something wrong ? Why wouldn't you wouldn't to be compared to them?
