"Gross... Fuck you"

Serious question... how did these kind of fifth grade playground insults become normalized on HN? It's a blatant violation of the guidelines https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and yet somehow comments like this get upvoted.



You're welcome to flag my post if you think it's inappropriate.

The author of this post is either ignorant or malicious. Some of their behavior is so ignorant or malicious that it warrants direct adversarialism. This blog post is gross.

Curious, what about my post included a "playground insult"?


That's obvious: "Gross... Fuck you".

Would you please not post like this to HN? It's not what this site is for. No matter how strongly you disagree with someone about $topic, it's not ok to dump poison into the ecosystem.

If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.


Doesn't read as fifth grade to me. Just has a little spiciness to it, I appreciate that. Think about it, the person could have linked and linked and linked to other articles to back up some point of disagreement. But instead, they shared their own opinion, relatable, easy to follow, and refreshing.
