I ctrl-f'd for the posts you mentioned and found all of them to be downvoted and/or flagged.
There's going to be hostility on the internet. That's why some users can downvote or flag posts that don't add anything to the discussion.
I can see maybe one or two comments that I don't feel contribute anything near the top of the page, and that's because they were posted so recently it would be wrong to kill them immediately.
HN is not perfect, but it's damn good, especially when you give it time (as 'dang mentioned above).
