The difference is that HN doesn't pretend to be something it's not and AFAIK the guidelines and the things dang has said over the years are pretty straight forward. It doesn't pretend to be a place for any and all opinions to have a home with no getting kicked off or whatever. I find it bizarre that my comment is being attacked for its venue, when HN has never claimed to be the type of venue which I and GP are criticizing for their doublespeak and hypocrisy.
