That's called confirmation bias and people do it all the time.
It just didn't work as a strategy if you actually wanted the find the truth. That's one thing this is about here.
The other thing I think you missed was the emotional context of these comments. I'm clearly asking for support and help to make HN welcoming, by not misrepresenting or cherry picking easy-to-ridicule info. It hurts when they do that and I don't like it. Please don't do it, don't ignore the people behind the comments, and don't quote this
