We have frequently asked users not to make public accusations of posting LLM-generated content, so much so that several of the most engaged HN users routinely flag these kinds of comments and post their own reminders not to do it, and email us to let us know about it.

That is the right way to deal with undesirable activity on HN: flagging, emailing us so we can take action, and if replies are to be posted, expressing them with respect and kindness as the guidelines ask of us.

The problem with a reply like yours – one that is much worse than an already-bad comment – is that it becomes the highest-priority comment for us to respond to, and makes it harder for us to deal with the original comment with our normal approaches.
