Spoiler: Their four scenarios are written from the pov of a hypothetical hiring manager that offends the applicant with bullshit (the "bullshit" they refer to at the start of their post) no matter the context.

You think that they wrote those scenarios with their own voice, so you are misreading the point.

Nowhere in the OP's original comment is it clear that this is third person point of view from a "hypothetical hiring manager."

Had they articulated "A hiring might think" at the beginning or even anywhere in their post then yes it would have been clear.

Regardless you don't want to work for anyone - fellow team mate, hiring manager or company that harbors that level of suspicion towards candidates. It's a red flag. I did not miss the point.

"I did not miss the point".

Really though? You're going to be like that? You're going to be the guy that tells the person making the point they didn't mean what they meant, after failing at reading comprehension?

The post I responded to said:

"Why even ask for resumes if you're going to ignore them? I also get very annoyed when people ask about your experience, then in the very next breath pretend none of it matters and you should do fizzbuzz."

Which I called bullshit. Then I listed a bunch of things that are also bullshit of the same kind but they get incrementally more bullshitty, among them was this:

"Alright you aced your assignment which despite being entirely unrelated to the actual job, domain and language, convinces us you got what it takes."

Which somehow you took literally.

Because somehow, you believed, someone would actually not only do that, but they would actually think that. They would actually knowingly hand a candidate an assignment they know is entirely unrelated to the job opening, and they would go online and detail their though process on this.

Was this a one time incident or do you go responding to every piece of irony on the internet pointing out that the writer must have meant what they said.

You seem to have greatly over-estimated your articulation and communication. But rather than entertaining the possibility that your intent might not have been universally understood, you are going resort to condescension and ad hominem remarks. Not very mature or constructive.
