> Your post is "flagged" to oblivion

Personally, I think downvoting insults is more inclusive than not downvoting insults.

> just like my earlier post

You made an entire submission asking users of a specific programming language to defend themselves.

It's a bad HN submission.

Flagging it is neither inclusive nor uninclusive. It's just marking it as a bad submission.

How do those actions fail to match words? What words do you have in mind?

Also the HN users that flagged it probably don't even use Rust.

So your magic ball tells you why did people hit the "flag" button on my post. Thank you for sharing that.

For a moment I thought every hint of criticism towards Rust is suppressed or censored by the Rust zealots.
