Always has been. And not only on HN, on the Internet everybody is a contrarian that knows better. It's cool to hate.

- iSnow 5y agoI used to be like that and find that re-conditioning myself is really hard. Agreeing to something while acknowledging its flaws seems so bland if you can write a scathing take-down instead...
- wolverine876 5y agoAs an alternative perspective: Writing a 'scathing take-down' is lazy BS; you don't have to know anything or even do anything. It adds nothing to the world. To write something constructive takes thought and creativity (as in, to 'create' something). ("Agreeing to something while acknowledging its flaws" isn't the alternative.)
