It was a flamewar comment whether you intended to post more or not.
"Toleration of conflict" in that quote is hardly saying that people should just inflict whatever they like on each other!

Of course not.
That's your prerogative alone!
I also find it interesting that my other comment was also flagged and no one can read it. So much for your veneer of respect for the necessity of conflict...
I have no intention of continuing this thread with you now.
If you want to ban me do so.
There's nothing I can do about it and you'll get your dopamine boost from exercising your limited power.
I still remember many years ago when someone in a thread admitted in writing that he was creating bogus accounts to circumvent his comment throttling and you were OK with that, punishing and banning the poor guy he was harassing instead because again, the guy clearly harassing by admitting to game the system was the right kind of person (you knew each other).
Bye.
I have no interest in banning you—I just would like you to follow HN's rules, same as any other user.

If you're going to post that sort of thing, you should supply the link, so readers can make up their own minds.
Btw if you want to understand that Milner quote, you need to assess it as a whole. The key words are "toleration" and "solutions". It's not celebrating crude conflict.
