It was fulminating in the sense that the HN guidelines mean the word: intense, low-information venting. Far from "no one else wanting to say it", it was interchangeable with hundreds if not thousands of similar comments that have been posted so far. That's a clear sign that there's nothing new in such a post, therefore nothing to learn from it, and therefore that it is not related to intellectual curiosity, which is what we're optimizing for here: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor....

I'm not saying your feelings aren't justified - just that that sort of comment is obviously against the mandate of this site.

As for upvotes, fulminating and other indignant comments routinely get upvoted—this is a weakness of the voting system, and is why HN is regulated not just by upvotes but also by flags, various software mechanisms, and moderation. Past explanations about this: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so....

Certainly you don't owe me anything—but every commenter here owes some things to the community, and this is one.
