Your definition of "anything" appears to encompass only "positive" things.

Is being rich a “negative” thing now?

It’s just a completely worthless observation, take the pointless virtue signaling somewhere else.

My comment was merely a semantic point, really boring actually. I don't really understand your frame to comprehend how your originated your first sentence. As far as i can understand you appear to have misinterpreted my reply. With that in mind i suppose your "observation" is completely worthless as well.

“Oh look another Rich Kid.” is what I called worthless. I’m sure the commenter certainly intended for it to be a negative thing, but that doesn’t really survive any closer scrutiny.

It’s as meaningful as stating that water is wet. Obvious, goes without saying.

No, anything of value. The thing that makes HN different from any other craphole like reddit is that the comment section in the link is as valuable (if not even more) than the link itself. This is possible when commenters willingly omit any flamebait, dismissive crap (like the comment above), etc.
