For people inclined to upvote this comment that is in violation of the guidelines (basically "Please don't say you are going to flag something." and "Please leave civil, substantive remarks."), please note that this same person is being ugly to me elsewhere as well ("me" being both the author of this piece and the person who posted it to HN): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14715464 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14715464 And this on the heels of this same person pretending to care in an obnoxious manner a few days ago when I mentioned being suicidal and their follow up remark made it clear that my feelings and welfare were not at all their actual priority: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14681395 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14681395 For the record, I consider this person to be engaging in an ugly campaign of harassment and hounding me, for reasons I cannot fathom.

I've commented on (and ranted against) the content you posted, not you specifically. I make similarly strong statements against any content posted to HN that I find to be harmfully wrong. I haven't made any comments about you personally, as I don't know you. It's not personal, and I follow the "new" section, rather than any user(s) in particular. When you expressed suicidal thoughts, I encouraged you to seek help. Again, not a comment about you as a person.
