Wow what a reply. Sorry I asked but good to know after all it didn't have anything to do with the original topic.

Yeah it was a jab at your intellectual capacity to follow the threads and topics. Why did I make such a jab? Possibly because you made a jab at how you thought I’m going all over the place and not staying on topic. Tit for tat. I’m sorry you had to resort to subtle jabs. And No my statement has nothing to do with original topic. It was just a remark that unintentionally spawned a debate. Perhaps much of the resistance to my argument is influenced by biased opposition to the original topic. I thought HN was above that.

  Usually HN is much more collaborative but you seem to have taken a combative approach to interacting with everyone, and I'd assume thats why you are finding yourself in a situation where you are arguing with everyone when that isn't what typically happens here.

    I was simply stating my opinions. Read everything I wrote carefully. The combativeness was initiated by you. As for the why this entire thread is so large the reasoning is simple. A lot of people disagree with my opinion and I have the capacity and willingness to interact with every single person who disagrees with me even when they vote me down. I don't make any personal attacks or combative stances unless the other opposing party does so. Look at the thread between you and me. Who decided to go meta and shift the conversation to a personal one about my own character? You could've stayed on topic and proved your point. I assume the only reason why you strayed is because you got nothing substantial left to say. What you will find is that combativeness always appears to be the stance of someone who disagrees with you. It's a bias that exists with all people in human nature. Literally look at this thread we're both in. I was never combative with you initially. You initiated the first jab. You changed the topic about zero sum games to my meta role in this thread and you're the one accusing me of straying from the topic? Come on man.
