- CoastalCoder 5y agoI see. Yeah, it's a vexing problem. Occasionally I make a comment on HN with the best of intentions, and despite that I'm accused of not discussing in good faith. I haven't found a good way of persuading them otherwise once that happens. It's frustrating because I think it prevents some really interesting and important conversations, especially on difficult topics.
