. . . because the other side deserves to be heard.

Not every factual statement has another side. Using two spaces after a sentence is an error in usage.

If you had just said "tl;dr", you might not have sounded as much like a willful ignoramus to those who might actually read it.

you're as wrong as posting about another side. The post is reactionary, rambling nonsense link bait about a statement of fact.

Saying it doesn't make it so -- and I'd expect someone at HN to know that.

Ok, I'll back off. I'll admit a personal dislike to follow up posts to popular content professing "another side". They feel like link bait to me and usually offer something other then "another side" of a topic or statement of fact. Knock yourself out with your opinion.

What -- you dislike it if it's off-site, but it's okay in comments?

I don't get it.

edit: It's not linkbait. It's really long -- too long for anyone to be likely to read in comments, and too long to throw away in a temporary context.

It hit me the wrong way on the day I read it. I backed off when I realized that I was probably interpreting the intent incorrectly.
