And the downvotes to prove my point
4 comments

I don’t think anyone disagrees that companies only do what benefits their bottom line, that’s pretty much the consensus here. You’re probably downvoted because you’re comment comes off as very aggressive/lecturing.
Also completely wrong. HN has no restrictions on being cynical about companies.
I don’t get your response, did I say anything else? I never said that HN has a restriction on being cynical about companies.
I took your comment "Such talk is verboten on HN" as being in response to such.
> "Such talk is verboten on HN"

That’s not my comment.

I was telling redwoolf why their comment was downvoted.

and the upvotes prove mine
