I don't know what you mean by "you're dead", but as to your comments, people are indeed "free" to practice ignorance.

Compassion for it sure, but at the intellectual level tolerance for mistruths is a kind of relativism that I don't think the Buddha would abide.

It is not "oppressive" to state this.

Your comments are marked as "dead" and must be vouched for by a member of the community with high enough "karma" (such as myself). It is a Hacker News anti-spam feature that you seem to have become the victim of.
