These things absolutely can be said on HN, if you list some points that make you think so. If OTOH your comment ist literally just that one sentence then I don't see why it shouldn't get downvoted and flagged. This is not the YouTube comment section.

I’ve seen some of the most well thought out and level headed comments get flagged to death while some insult floats to the top.
