It's akin to saying "he's talking nonsense" when someone is just putting random syllables after each other.
If that is insulting, than the fact he took the action is the insult, not my pointing it out.
- pvg 2y agoThat's not how insults work and it's definitely not how HN works. You can't start telling people you disagree with that they are lying, out of nowhere. It's not some convoluted or difficult guideline, it's not 'akin to' your example, it's just plain name calling. Don't do it here, please.
