This is exactly the kind of passive aggressive attitude that is tolerated on HN that makes this place unbearable. "This is dumb" - gets downvoted to oblivion.

This is exactly the kind of passive aggressive attitude that is tolerated on HN that makes this place unbearable. "This is dumb" - gets downvoted to oblivion. "This is nonsensical + a bunch of absolutely bs reasoning" - second most upvoted comment atm. HN tolerates the appearance of quality discourse over the actual thing, and dealing with this dissonance in most comment sections is exhausting.
