You shouldn’t, but I address why you shouldn’t whine either in my comment. I’m sure LW will let you know if a poll of the peanut gallery is required.
This is needlessly insulting. And I’ll have you know I haven’t “whined” at all. My only comment was a reply to your comment in which you “whined” about people expressing negative opinions. Well, from what I see, there are mostly positive opinions, and praise, and karma for people who approve. You yourself got upvoted to 15 in the great-grandparent, for example.

Ah, but you see, my fundamental point is that there’s a big difference. I am trying to disincentive disincentivizing progress. My whining is double-negative virtuous! Om nom nom delicious moral high ground. You’re right that I was needlessly insulting, but there are no incentives to avoid being needlessly insulting. Maybe you should write a top-level comment about the importance of not disincentivizing criticism? Karma is just a weather vane that tests for attributes of strings, it’s not hard to milk it, and I think your agenda is roughly as virtuous as mine. You just need better rhetoric is all I meant to say.

Just be glad I told you.
