I think threads like this tend to end up with a specific subset of people reading them and weird voting patterns. Let’s look again at the point I was responding to:

Present the second statement to anyone outside a certain subset of HN readers and they would just sigh and shake their heads. But on HN we can actually have lengthy debates about whether or not humans are indeed social animals!

The votes are pretty even, incidentally. My comments have been alternately positive and negative.
