So, basically, you are accusing me of wildly overreacting not because I am but because you are keen to heap additional attacks on me for some reason.
Criticising an industry as having inherent conflict of interest is not remotely a conspiracy theory.
I think I am done here. This is a really tiresome pattern on HN of late where two or more people gang up on me and use bad faith tactics and then I get downvoted etc. It's a no win situation for me and seems entirely unrelated to whatever point I have tried to make.
