No one is accepting the bad consequences of intent. However, you&#x27;re not going to get any constructive conversation if you&#x27;re going the route of a demagogue and  just blindly applying a very strong, simple label on millions of people. Historically, that never turns out well. If anything this just distracts people from the actual problems that need to be solved.<p>EDIT: Sorry, I didn&#x27;t mean to accuse you of writing things that a demagogue would say. That was meant for Tycho, but I just wanted to make my stance more clear for you.<p>EDIT: My bad. You&#x27;re right. There was no need to use demagogue; I&#x27;m also human as well. Like I said, it&#x27;s very hard to have constructive conversation with strong accusations flying around.<p>EDIT: I could be wrong but you&#x27;re not shadowbanned. To prevent conversations from spiraling out of control like they do elsewhere, HN limits replies for certain sized threads with a time limit so people can think straight before replying again.
