if I wasnt around to witness it over the last 10 years I would have thought most commenters on HN were bots pretending to be offended and gatekeeping for obscure profit motives.

So the bad news is people are just insecure, jealous, pedantic, easy to offend, highly autistic - and these are the smart ones.

The good news, is with dead internet theory they will all be replaced with bots that will atleast be more compelling make some sort of sense.

God forbid people have an opinion

"Oh you're posting on hackernews, if you don't suck google's dick and every single gadgets megacorps shit out you must be highly autistic".... interesting take

This is objectively one of the most autistic websites on the internet. Likely worse than 4chan /g/. Just as dang and PG like it though!

Sure is! And it’s great.

Sorry I being autistic didn’t even phrase it well I think people got too offended I was just saying the bad side to it, HN is great.

Couple of people were so upset at the suggestion they replied in a defensive manner I should have been more careful with my rant

If you call motives of designers, painters, musicians, filmmakers and other c-word professionals obscure, then I have bad news for whatever occupation you have for a living. Maybe it's just because it depends on how well AI sells, or because there's suddenly a perceived window of opportunity wide open at some fee for everyone unable to c-word anything on their own to finally become able, even if by relying on corporate crutches, the window you deem endangered by said gatekeepers?
