Point them out here, if you disagree. How do I prove to you that I spoke with a Lyft driver who prefers other car service apps over Uber? I am not going to prove it. Take it as a fact, or don't.

Let people post what they want to say. We don't need everyone to write like a professional critic or columnist. This is not a competition for Best Comment. I like sharing my thoughts with people regardless of how much content I can fill my comment with. You like to keep yourself mute from commentary, that's okay. If you think you are hearing echoes, perhaps there is truth to this? Or perhaps we should conjecture a conspiracy theory that a competitor is running a destroy-uber campaign here on this thread, like they planned a bunch of accounts weeks or months ago. Yeah there are a lot of fake online identities out there (esp during election time). Shall we continue with this conspiracy theory?

Let's move on with our life, we have bigger things to worry about than an echo chamber on HN.
