So you don't like it when people accuse you unjustly either. I can understand that.

It's more about people accusing HN unjustly. The structure of the forum leads people to false conclusions very easily—I wrote about this at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23308098. It's easy for people to get stuck in a negative distortion which doesn't benefit anybody.

We can look at and acknowledge the problems on HN—certainly there are many problems—and at the same time see that there is also something unusually creative and positive at its core. I think the way for this positive core to develop further is for the community to get a more accurate reflection of itself.
