I'd give a name to my opinion of Dang, but he'd just mod it.

When it's all said and done, you won't win so you may as well drop it or leave HN. Dang considers himself the adult, with people like you as the children. He'll chide you, but he won't give any credence whatsoever to anything you say, so don't bother.

And while I don't necessarily agree with your initial posting, it didn't need moderator attention.

Just as an FYI, Dang will also harass you in an effort get you to either escalate into a bannable offense or to get you to leave the site.

I've seen it happen, so my advice to you is to decide if putting up with Dang's bullshit is worth being a part of HN.
