I feel like you are probably being a little too harsh in your response. If you dislike the content then move along, comment, or downvote. There is no reason to be uncivil and attack the person when attacking the content would do a sufficient job of conveying your point.

Just FYI, there is no downvoting for submissions on Hacker News. If you dislike the topic, ignore it and move on. Only for inflaming submissions, there's a "flag" button. Normally it's rarely used, I've only used it a few times before, but effective to kill toxic political flamewars before it's out of control.

Hey, thanks for that. I know I've seen it said before but as I don't yet have the karma to downvote anything it is easy to forget.
