I downvoted this comment because I feel it dives too far into the specific politics of the situation, without being constructive in specific ways. That makes me think it is likely to increase the amount of mind-killing, without really raising the level of the discussion.
EDIT: I am curious why this was downvoted. I was trying to be more polite than offering a simple downvote by offering information which could be used to create more productive comments. If I haven’t done that well I’d appreciate a response in kind rather than simple downvotes.

Upvoted again.
Yeah I realized that myself shortly after writing it, mostly the ‘blind monkey’ bit.
What do you mean here? You’re not the one who wrote that comment.
I mean that I shouldn’t have snarked back like that using that language, it was immature. Sorry about that.
… Wow I seem to be getting a lot of downvotes.
