Your opinion of "animuson" is off-topic for this list.
StackOverflow is explicitly for technical questions with technical
answers. I believe opinions, languages comparisions, and flamebaits in
general are explicitly banned and subject to removal and possible
banning. So are subterfuges like phrasing banned topics as questions.
Given your behavior here, I am 90+% sure animuson's action was appropriate.
