This is a logical fallacy that is unfortunately rampant on here. It&#x27;s an ad hominem - the source may be a bunch of shitty people, but if we&#x27;re arguing that we shouldn&#x27;t accept something, attack the actual content of the message.<p>It&#x27;s generally quite easy to do so when the source of information is biased, so dismantle the message if you want to argue about how it&#x27;s incorrect.<p>It looks like these numbers posted were very low effort and lacking any real context whatsoever, so it shouldn&#x27;t be too hard to rebut them.<p>Edit: In fact, unprepare does so quite well in <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=10655743" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=10655743</a>
