You started a wretched flamewar with this comment, which broke the site guidelines badly and predictably led to worse. Then you perpetuated it. This is criminal negligence if not arson, and we ban accounts for this kind of thing—especially now, after the hellfires this site went through in the last couple of weeks. We've raised the bar and are banning more accounts for abusing the site this way. I'm not going to ban you because your comment history shows that you've mostly been commenting about other things. But please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html, keep the intended spirit of the site in mind, and don't do it again.
