Why should they stop? Maybe they want to rehash the issue that's not being adequately addressed. Maybe it's not supposed to be funny.
How do you propose we address this issue? Instead of policing what people say, are you interested in sharing your or someone else ideas?
It's not that there isn't a conversation to be had. It's that it's a low-effort, karma farming, reddit-tier comment that always invites emotional/reactionary responses, typically the same ones as before, that usually shoots to the top of the comments section and drowns out any relevant or interesting (see: curious, as per HN guidelines) discussion.
Because policing other people’s comments instead of offering a solution isn’t a low-effort, reddit-tier comment?
Mirror. Buy one.
