Cool, can you reply to the person's original reply to me in which they made fun of the point I was making—how "disgusting" it is that Apple…allows photo editors in the App Store?
Please don’t act like a jerk. (And yes, deflecting from your own poor conduct counts as acting like a jerk on HN.)
It’s not clear that they were making fun of your point, and the guidelines ask us to assume good faith. If you’re serious about expecting others to observe the guidelines, that’s great. Start by observing the guidelines, to demonstrate that you hold yourself to a high standard. Then if others break the guidelines in their responses to you, you’ll be on solid ground in holding them to account, and doing so in a way that also keeps to the guidelines, avoiding personal abuse and escalation.
How so? Can you not create all sorts of unethical imagery with the photo editing apps on the App Store? And do they not make the production of unethical imagery much easier and accessible? Which part of my comment is ridiculous and absurd?
When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."
Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.
