> 1. Literally Every nook & corner shop now accepts digital payments At what cost? Was it worth the lives that were lost? > 2. I have seen cash-distribution by candidates during elections to influence votes! They were mostly absent in the immediate subsequent state elections. Because you diligently monitored every single election personally after this fiasco? And you also have certain guarantees on why this won't happen again? >3. Many "Poor" people made extra money by queuing in the line for "Rick" people. Oh nice. Should we add this to the tally of 10 million jobs that were to be generated by the present government? >4. Terrorist activity immediately stopped all over the place because they are mostly cash sponsored. Just look at what has happened in Kashmir since, and whether the situation is better or worse. How has immediately stopping the terrorist operations helped? > 5. Situation normalized within 3 month.

  Can you please point out the "uncivility" in my reply? Edit: I did read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

    Pointing out the uncivility in your reply is exactly what dang just did. You should not expect a sentence-by-sentence accounting of where you lost civility points. That's not how it works.

      That's true in general, but sometimes it's easier than others.

    You used personally acerbic language all the way through that comment, getting more abusive as you went along ("because you diligently?", "and also you have?", "Oh nice", "get out of your bubble", "your cringeworthy remark", "I'm sure you are used to losing your loved ones"). You cross into bannable offence when you do that, so please don't do it again.

      Thanks, I see your point. I see how I could have been less caustic and personal in the choice of words and phrases. I don't think it ever got to the point of getting the label of being abusive. Again, I appreciate you taking out the time to point out your concerns with the comment. I've taken a note and will be more mindful of the policy.
