You made it personal: you left it because you don't like it anymore. I am not talking about that kind of thinking. I totally understand why you would be encouraged to think that everyone that does it would do it for the same reasons as you. However, I'm offering an explanation that roots the critique in a more reasonable ground. To me, HN displays the same level of degradation of discourse. If you think the way I think you think, the decision to stay here and leave reddit would seem impossible to understand. Instead of encouraging to see it as a personal choice, I encourage you to try to understand why someone would do that.

> You made it personal: you left it because you don't like it anymore. So wait, you're taking exception to someone on the internet expressing a personal opinion? > I totally understand why you would be encouraged to think that everyone that does it would do it for the same reasons as you. I don't think that at all. I'm very confused by your comments. I don't know what you're getting at here or why you seem to be offended.

  Don't take it personally.

    OK. I don't understand what you're saying here, but oh well. I don't need to.

      I understand, you wanted to get close to my argument and show support. However, if you don't understand what I'm saying, maybe you should avoid it. Don't you think?
