If you're going to credit the community with the problem I trust you'll credit it with the solution as well.

There's been a massive influx of reddit-quality comments for quite a while. I guess it was only a matter of time before it was reflected in the submissions.

So are you also going to point out that the vast majority of other top links are actually quite credible? It's easy to declare a whole site bad over one thing isn't it? Like the author in this article did under similar circumstances?
I think that in HN there is a high quality in the comments and a low quality in the voting of publications, because in the first, people refrain from commenting stupid things because it gets them harsh criticism, but in the second, people can vote for stupid (or low quality) publications because they will not be criticized.
And most of HN (and of social media, and the world in general) is dominated by dumb people.
It's nearly an exact match of the meme like utterance often seen on reddit: "chrome bad".
