These passive aggressive posts are a far worse violation of the HN Guidelines than what they're in reply to almost all of the time - and this is no exception.

No, no they're not. I would much rather people are warned about the guidelines and adhere to them going forward than the opposite and we then just let violations run rampant.
They're not "warnings". They're passive aggressive internet dick waving virtue signalling. The flag button exists.
I, for one, appreciate knowing why people have flagged my comments. The "flag and move on" strategy is for use against bad actors.
