I don't hang around HN to have every other commenter confirm my existing opinions either.

Being told by someone that they think you're wrong isn't an insult.

If you buy the reassuring yet nonsensical idea that "the humans are fucked, the planet will be fine", you can be adequately classified as cherry-picking a minimally discomfiting worldview, against all evidence. That's not an insult.

There’s a lot of very low brow discussion going on here so I understand why you’re frustrated. HN does tone police, though, so if you want to participate probably best to play along.

No, but check your wording. Calling someone naive and unable to see it is insulting. Just to give you an additional perspective.
