Do you have a point here? I don't think users here will appreciate your passive-aggressive remark.

  Worrying about what the comment rabble on HN will "appreciate" is no useful barometer for success in progressing through life.

    I merely say this because these sort of passive-aggressive remarks are generally not tolerated here. It just doesn't make for very interesting conversation, flamewars aside. >Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

      To be fair, you can be snarky, upfront, direct or kind about the topic and still get the same downvotes.

  I thought I was being funny, in a wink wink nudge nudge kind of way, i.e. appearing to completely miss the point of a comment injecting the culture wars into an unrelated discussion. Aaaand we’re arguing about my intention instead. Mission successful? :)
