I really don't understand the need for this type of hyperbole. I always hear people accuse reddit of "getting out the pitchforks" and now it's that Hacker News is "having them perish in the flames of hundreds of angry tweets." And of course, by this, you mean that some people called a guy a dick for being a dick. No one is dying, no one is even facing minor injury. They are simply being called a dick for behaving like one. What are you hoping to accomplish with this completely over the top disconnection from reality?
