I get it, you see yourself as the watchman on the tower. You're telling people to not be suckers, sheep, etc. Wake up, don't look at the bright and shiny, there are REAL problems here. Am I hearing you correctly now?
Griping, by itself, is repulsive. Getting grumpier because others are turned off by you doesn't help. In my opinion, rather than doubling down on the grouchiness, the best thing you can do is flip the script; turn off the complaints and retort with leadership or ideas on how you'd improve things.
I doubt you're as skeptical and questioning as you think you are, though. You use lots of hyperbolic language which makes me think you've bought into a lot of hype.

Wow, flagged and dead, what did you originally write?!
There's no profit in doubling-down!

I said "As I see it, there is nothing in your comment that is worthy of a reply. So not bothering.". I guess that had too little sugar coating for HN's taste...
No. Any fool can sing praises. But instead, try to criticise and question every one of those supposedly good thing that gets thrown in your way. Or else you might not have a later year at all...
The reason we are in this mess in the first place, is that there were too many to sing praises and too few to look beyond the immediate future, and all those voices that did look beyond the immediate future and warned about it, were overwhelmed, and were looked down as you now look down on me and my comment...
