Indeed, and if I thought you were sincere, or knew what you were objecting to,
I might take your rebuke a bit more seriously.
But as it stands, it looks like you're obviously copying Ethan's words (almost
word-for-word identically) so I think you're just trying to make a point about
the general unfairness that you're called out for an unprovoked personal attack
on Bart while I got away with a friendly and light-hearted comment that he is
experienced enough to know how to ask for help with apt-get install numpy if he
wants it.
Yes, you're right, the world is harsh and cruel for those who can't tell the
difference between a personal attack and a gentle dig. Here's a couple of hints
as to why your comment was unacceptable and mine wasn't:
- you brought up discussions/issues from the past completely unrelated to the
current discussion, solely for the purpose of embarrassing Bart and re-opening
old arguments;
- I didn't;
- you compared him to a notorious (albeit possibly mythical) mass murderer of
children;
- I didn't.
Hope that helps.
