Try not to dismiss my comment for what it is. I'm not taking a stance on political affiliation or preference. I'm trying to highlight a behavior that is the result of elections of recent past. I'm not excited about another 4 years where communication diminishes to snarky comments that point finger at the side they oppose. It makes me want to just go outside and smell the fresh air.

I come to HN for substantial conversation, not this elementary unsubstantial conversation.

Your presumption that it was snarky banter and not a deductive prediction based on publicly documented behavior is itself a political stance and affiliation.

With that in mind, "Am I the only one..." is not substantial conversation, because it is rarely the case where one person is the only one who holds a certain viewpoint.
