HN doesn't promote a good conversation on the subject of nutrition and diets.

Just take the fact that angry users can downvote me to oblivion or flag my posts which are on topic.

Every time a Guardian subject on demonizing sugar and praising fat or any similar material was posted, my responses, which were sometimes less denouncing than this one, were downvoted or censored.

The majority just likes to believe fadists are saving them, instead of outright misinforming and scaring them into healthier but pseudoscientific lifestyles.
