I'm pretty sure that calling your fellow commenters "trolls" and accusing them of having "psychological issues" also violates HN Guidelines, which say:

> Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

> Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

I suppose that might run afoul of the guidelines, though I did not call out any specific commenters and I think we can all agree there were some trolls on that thread. You can look for yourself and see some newly created and quickly banned green accounts on it.

The comment you're replying to was my honest assessment of the situation, given the many dozens of comments hoping for people to lose their bank deposits and for their businesses (or those that employ them) to fail.
