i think this is more about who is saying "stupid" and how generous they feel about it. there are a few things

- if paul graham says it's stupid it's different than somebody who calls everything stupid.

- calling the owner of the idea stupid.

- plain old hating.

- saying 'stupid' can also be a part of the debate, that's natural.

this is a hard problem to solve, that's why i brought it up. there is definitely not an easy way of saying this is right or wrong, but if community sets its tone, i think participants will try to be a part of that commonality.

and hopfully HN stays 'objective' and within 'reason' with polite, kind, constructive comments. when there are no rules, haters win.
