Ironically, that's not at all what I wrote. You made statements such as these:
> But they read tweets like this, and they have the typical developer blindspot of not questioning motive enough and they believe it!
> I'm tired of hearing this person's garbage quoted ad nauseam like a gospel
And so I observed:
> If you think people are parroting swyx uncritically - that's hardly a criticism of swyx, is it?
To be clear, if you feel other people are repeating swyx uncritically, that is a criticism of those people.
When it comes to people being loud while not adding knowledge to the discussion - with all due respect, you should consider the composition of your house before casting that stone.
I apologize if my comments are frustrating for you to read; I am doing my best to give you useful feedback. You behaved in a pretty extreme way, which is not considered acceptable in this community (or most communities). And I take it you knew better:
> that's actually not a criticism of the guy at all!"
> that's hardly a criticism of swyx, is it?
"Ironically, that's not at all what I wrote"
The most extreme idea in this thread is thinking anyone would consider your feedback based on the level of coherence you've shown: maybe give it a rest?
And turn it into: "that's actually not a criticism of the guy at all!"
Maybe when you start translating everything into what you want to hear, it's hard to turn off.
