Pretty bad. But yours was worse because it was even more generic, more ideological, and more declamatory—a trifecta of badness by HN's standard. Other standards evaluate these things differently, of course, but when posting here the house rules apply.
If a comment goes the wrong way down a one way street, please go in the opposite direction. That is, instead of more generic, be more specific; instead of more ideological, more unpredictable; instead of more declamatory, more thoughtful. Then you're making the discussion better even though someone else made it worse.
