Stop being abusive. Your original double-negative comment lacks clarity, it can be read in two completely opposite senses. It would better for you simply to have clarified it (and next time be clearer in the first place). People here brought that to your attention but all you do is attack them. That's on you not us. If your stylistic choices make your writing incomprehensible, then don't use them. That's all.

Put it like this: it was an interesting discussion before that, and looks like people expected you would simply clarify your meaning (like most of us do when we're being unclear), so the discussion could proceed. Not go on all-out attack.
