This comment is so annoying - the perfect HN mix of pretentious and nihilist.

If you really think that average people trying to create anything will make things worse, then you're probably fine with the entertainment-addiction cycle in the first place. Maybe you work for supercell.

I believe this comment is not directed to people who are trying to create something, but to people who feel entitled/special because they are trying to create something they perceive as improvement for humanity.

Please don't respond to a bad comment by making a still worse comment. That just drags the thread down for everybody.
