It's not a personal attack. It's a statement of cause and effect. When a person is programmed to think and believe a certain way, to the point of operant conditioning, that pattern in the brain fires first. By design. That's the purpose.

In terms of the "flamewar" claim, (1) did you also warn the other person? (2) Just because the truth doesn't make people feel good doesn't make it less true. Stoking a flame can be a subjective experience depending on one's personal position about a topic.

> please stop posting flamewar comments as well

Okay. Noted. Will do.




I did warn the other commenter: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36935242. But in general, we need you to follow HN's rules regardless of what other people are doing.

(I don't mean just you personally, of course, but everyone here.)
