If you comment you care.

Please don't post comments that don't contribute anything to the discussion.

Like yours? Don't want to sound snarky but either we have meta-comments or not. If yes, I'm fine, if not - and we use downvotes to moderate - then we don't.

My comment pointed out that they outright refuse to state which ones fall into which category. That is a 100% factual statement and highly relevant to the discussion.

If you'd like to provide a rebuttal to that, be my guest. But childish swipes that don't address the point being made are just that... childish.

I can't see

"Please don't post comments that don't contribute anything to the discussion."

as highly relevant to the discussion.

Defending a bad meta comment is the worst option of all.

In my value system, killing people is the worst option of all, but bad meta comments are close second.

Commenting on a news article doesn't mean you care what happens to the subject of the article.

Your comment is not only pointless and petty, it's wrong.

No, it's an adoption from "If you're reading it, it's for you" by The Last Psychiatrist. Not that I'm as clever as he is. Pointless seems in the eye of the beholder.

If you don't understand something, the easiest thing is to condemn it and call the person who made the comment stupid.

> "If you're reading it, it's for you"

"It" here would have to be the situation/article, right?

The thing they don't care about is what will happen to Coinbase in the future. They're not reading that.
