Your post is warning about how other people will be held in judgement:

I find it rather dubious. Who are these people who will remember what some random Hacker News commenters said? Why would they be listening to them in the first place? It seems like an empty threat.

It's not a threat, that's a pretty uncharitable reading. Society will realize that everything is not fine, and that the group of people who insist that it is are to be ignored. I don't imagine that will involve singling out individual HN users.

If this is a subject you want to discuss then I'm here to discuss it. If you want to dissect my language further, you're free to do so. But I'm not interested in arguing about semantics or tone and this is my final word on it.
