Please don't take HN threads into ideological flamewar. If you start with "morally clueless" and end with Eichmann, god help us, that's pretty much guaranteed. We're trying for a very different sort of conversation here.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

I edited the post but frankly I don't see how "morally clueless" is more conducive to a flamewar than "barbaric" which appears all over this thread.

Yes, other people are posting flamebait too.
