HN is an ideological battle whether you like it or not, dang. Especially political threads like this one. Expressing views outside of the techno-libertarian norm around here should be allowed.
It's a matter of degree. Fire may be inevitable; burning to a crisp is not.

This is the hostile media effect: ideological users see the platform as dominated by their enemies. See for example https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18664482, where HN is "left leaning, socialist Democrats".
You didn't express an ideological view, though, you just took a snarky swipe at HN and called people bourgeoisie conspiracy theorists and capitalist bootlickers.
I've done the same thing, sometimes the urge to react emotionally rather than intellectually and get a good stab in is too hard to resist, but some karmic retribution is only fair. You do the crime, you do the time.
