Me too, but I thank the slowdown-bot because slowdowning is generally a good idea in life. Forced to take time, you'll probably write a better response anyway. Knowing that you're slowdowned, you're forced to be more strategic in what you choose to respond to. It's a gift.

I don't disagree that everyone should think carefully about there responses to others, I certainly do.
The slowdown for me is about 3 posts every 5 hours it seems. I'm not aware of the exact limits, do you know?

No, rather than test its limits, I find that chill is the better choice.

Ah you used the term "slowdown-bot" so I figured you had specific knowledge.
Posting 3 comments in half a day is not really testing the limits, there is plenty of chill time.
I love discussing all topics on HN that I'm passionate and informed about, including politics.
When I do see political topics (which is often these days) and such a one sided view, I feel the need to voice the other side.
