I submitted the original source here and the excuse to flag it was for its misleading headline: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34935780 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34935780 I did my best writing this headline with the number of characters HN allows to address those concerns. In fact my comment in this thread was almost verbatim copied from the person raising those concerns, so there is no excuse to call anything out as misleading. The article is documenting actual events that happened. Your own post may "influence views" before people have a chance to read the article by trying to essentially suppress and taint the discussion. I've made every effort at accuracy possible, technicalities aside, we are all adults and people can make up their own minds.

> Your own post may "influence views" before people have a chance to read the article by trying to essentially suppress and taint the discussion. I’m suppressing and tainting discussion by directly linking to the original source you yourself complained you couldn’t link to? I honestly don’t understand your logic. > so there is no excuse to call anything out as misleading. Which I have not done. Please don’t straw man. That’s also part of the guidelines. > we are all adults and people can make up their own minds. Which would then mean that my post would not have the effect you’re complaining about. The more I read your argument, the less sense it makes. It is clear you’ve made emotionally charged edits, though. Perhaps that’s why another poster remarked you seem to be “trying to say something without saying it”. I sincerely wish you a relaxed and stress free weekend and that you can resolve whatever is on your mind, if anything.
