This conversation started with you bringing up your life-or-death principles in detail when you saw somebody mention using a rag to avoid burning themself with a cast iron pan and then asked for feedback on that post

I’m kind of bummed you edited out the “kindly fuck off” from a few minutes ago. It seemed honest.

Following the guidelines, I edited out a swipe. Multiple people have been honest about how awful you're being, but maybe you need a moderator to step in and give you tips on how to have a mature discussion?

This conversation started with you butting into another conversation I am having with another user, that user also having butt into a conversation I was having with yet another user. Your posts cannot be more off-topic. Your need to seek attention and make this about you, to flamebait and ignore nearly every HN guideline speaks for itself.

I don't know, I feel like it will help smaller businesses without a budget for a designer or even design taste compete with larger companies. Maybe that's good and maybe not. But big brands always had this splashy advertising, so this evens the field

Advertising is a negative sum game[0]. Helping smaller businesses without budget compete with larger companies on advertising is just contributing to making life worse for everyone. There's no evening the field, only deepening the muck. There's no persistent advantage possible here, because whatever new cool thing a small business can do, a large business can do more of it and better -- [0] - It's a zero-sum game in…

While I generally agree, I think if we the consumers do more to level the playing fields from our vantage point, we can have more influence

This would be done by running more ad blockers and being vocal about our rejection of how bad ads have become, so they hear back (in theory...)

You asked for feedback on a downvoted post, I gave it, and then you told me to fuck off.

I’m not sure what outcome you wanted here, but there isn’t really any amount of attacking me that will make other people agree that seeing “leather pan handle covers” and posting 200 words about how your conscience wouldn’t allow you to be involved in the leather pan handle cover business isn’t shaming.

It’s a factually correct read. If you look at this thread, nobody is here saying “actually it is totally normal and not shaming to bring up how you live and die by principles that make it impossible to countenance selling leather pan handle covers in response to seeing somebody mention leather pan handle covers”. No amount of painting yourself as a victim of “having your question answered” is going to make other people change their correct interpretation of the post that you asked for feedback about.

It’s like you asked a question, didn’t like the answer, and then decided that it’s against the rules to answer the question that you asked.
