It is stated in an inflammatory manner, and 'don't downvote this comment' is certainly not appropriate, but I think the charitable interpretation is that the purpose of that comment was to provide context for the linked article.
It behooves us, in such a situation, to create valuable discussion of said context, rather than focusing on the negative aspects of the parent comment, thereby creating yet more negativity.
- luckylion 5y agoI agree and I wasn't trying to dismiss it, I just really don't see the point. "I think people who insulted me shouldn't lose their jobs" - "Polite reminder that this was posted on a website I don't like" doesn't give context, it just seems to try to deflect and derail with some shady guilt-by-association-tactics to keep people from engaging with the opinion posted.
