How was the parent comment not similar? How is anything politically-related on this forum, supposedly for discussion of startups, not in some way inflammatory?

How was the parent comment not similar? How is anything politically-related on this forum, supposedly for discussion of startups, not in some way inflammatory? What about the post itself? Not to mention that I and another user backed up my (yes, off-the-cuff) comment with references? I don't see how that 'perpetuates a flamewar'? Vandalism is a rather strong word. Feel free to ban this account. I can always make another if I decide there's any discussions worth participating in.
