Not sure why you are getting down voted here. These are all very valid points, this situation has a lot of variables that make it remarkably different than any other and can encourage the resistance (protests, &c) to continue far longer than standard.

I will bite, even if he actually means better than he tweets, his tweets has only added fuel to the fire.

When you are in the public sphere you do not spew out every thought that comes out unfiltered - whether it is trump or musk it damages what they stand for and works against them.

I would expect a president, 3 years in, to be able to communicate to all his constituents with a measure of forethought and attempt to keep in mind that not all of them apply "critical thought".

He is being downvoted for using a code block and making it difficult for those of us on mobile to read.

Sorry about that, did not mean to use a code block. just wanted to make a list. HN formatting is little confusing.

Personally I prefer explicit markup attributes. i.e. if I want to mark something as code an markup like ``` or {code} or whatever is clearer than inferring tabs for code formatting, this kind of accidental code blocks could be easily avoided.

On a side note I read on mobile all the time, I understand the frustration, but it not poster's fault HN has some poor formatting choices which are not mobile friendly and no preview options, you should direct their feedback towards HN rather than the poster, most of them do not do this intentionally.

HN has already said they will do nothing about it, it’s been this way for years. Therefore the only person people can direct their rage to is the poster.

If you want to make a list, there’s nothing wrong with using new lines, they will work just fine.

A code block however stimulates rage.

If you're on mobile, you need Materialistic.

Protests like this one happened before covid for similar reasons. While those might be factors, I don't think they're very important ones. I think the fact that there have been several such murders in the past few months is the main reason this is happening.
