Hi mlang,
One of the things I really like about this site is that personal attacks on others are a strict taboo.
It seems increasingly common on the Internet to believe that personal attacks are okay, in some cases even virtuous. To each their own I guess, but personally I greatly prefer HN's model.
If you choose to stay, I think that you will find that bringing up unusual perspectives is highly welcome here, as is disputing other people's points. But, for me at least, an accusation that any other poster lacks empathy will always be met with a downvote.
