Is there some rule on HN that if a member of HN holds the subjective belief (which is what it is technically, though beliefs often appear as facts/knowledge to the one who holds them, complicating matters substantially) that someone "is" "a charlatan on par with some edgy teenager running his own blog but professing to be the equivalent of a respected doctor or scientist", any content from that person doesn't belong on the site?
