The comments here don't feel that out of line that you need to be this defensive / thin skinned. It's an interesting idea, and worth expanding on, even if it's been languishing.

It's not the first time that this tool is discussed and, unfortunately, looking at the comments made in the past, I would definitely consider them out of line.

So I'm not surprised that the parent poster feels like that about this place.

Over half of the comments in this thread are exceedingly negative and some are claiming it's racist satire. It's fairly out-of-line, and as is often the case the HN mob is in the wrong.
