Perhaps because I’m a government lobbyist and consultant formerly of FAANG with 24 years of experience trying to warn the Web industry that the exact thesis of the article is turning non-Web sectors against them? Couldn’t possibly be that, no, I have to be schizophrenic or a troll. The reason I know you don’t have schizophrenia close to you in your life is how willing you are to throw it at an anonymous commenter with a dismissive gesture toward “schizo”. You’d shut up if you knew what it’s like.

And you and “a proper response to accusing you of being a conspiracy means I’m being trolled when really I have no response” wonder why I change HN accounts like I change socks. Perhaps it’s because I hold this community in the utmost contempt precisely because of you and people like you, and I have zero interest in building a reputation among the harmful, toxic people who don’t realize how wrong they have it that I am working to excise from the conversation.

Take it or leave it. The good news for you is that you’re on the comfortable side of the argument so you will never get flagged or chastised by dang. Flagrantly accusing someone of psychological defect due to not liking their opinion is okay depending on the target and beliefs.
