Doesn't this whole HN post kind of substantiate it though? The article itself was incorrectly flagged. So far I see no comments addressing the content of the article at all. I think it's completely fair to describe the response here as reflexively defensive. I do agree that my comment is too broad in implicating most Europeans. I do think the standard European response on HN is how I described it, but presumably most Europeans on HN don't actually contribute to these discussions and it's misleading to extend the point to them.
