If you're going to play Devil's advocate, at least put some effort into it.

  I asked people not to reply to the comment, thanks.

    Which is part of my criticism of your post. You can't just say something inflammatory and walk away mic-drop style. That's not a constructive comment. That's also not how message boards work.

      But there's nothing constructive about your comment - you say "at least put some effort into it." So please do so, yourself. If you are within your edit window go ahead. If you will leave it as the empty kneejerk comment reading "at least put some effort in" (which is against HN policy and derails the thread) all I have to say, as promised, is oh those aren't my thoughts, we obviously agree and I was just quoting off of a neo-Nazi message board. No need to reply. Thanks for your understanding. (If you wanted to make a constructive reply, you could start by saying "If we were to take that argument seriously for a moment..." and then state your thoughts.) There's really no need for any other short comment, I will just agree with you. We can just agree to agree.
