Independently of the truth of your statements - your comments would be better received (and, more importantly, help preserve the quality of Hacker News) if you were a little bit less...emotionally charged in your language.
- f1shy 4y agoHonest question: other than the phrase "It's been a disaster of a Government with disastrous policies" which is really negative, but I still consider it a valid point of view. What is emotionally charged in the language? I feel frustration, but I do not see anything too emotional. Except that in HN you have to be a robot to post?
- throw10920 4y agoWe might have slightly different ideas of what "emotionally charged" means, or I might have used the wrong phrase. Part of what I'm objecting to is sentences like "amusing that people get so triggered when people's objectively bad policies". You may not consider "amusing that people get so triggered" to necessarily be "emotionally charged", but it certainly doesn't provide a lot of information or value to HN, and I think that it'll stir up other people's emotions. Similarly, "objectively bad policies" is a very strong assertion to phrase something with a lot of political dialog around it, and like much of that other political dialogue, doesn't do a whole lot to back it up.
