      Oh, sorry if I overreacted. I'm sensitive on this point because I want to protect accounts like yours and I know how strong the forces are that push them towards provocation, then flamewar. By "accounts like yours" I mean ones that express minority or contrarian views on any divisive topic. That is valuable to the community but, unfortunately, there is a lot of pressure on anyone who wants to comment that way, and it often doesn't go very well. We've seen this over and over. I wrote a longer reply to you about this here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42714563 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42714563. Just wanted to add some context.
