Yet there are much "worse" articles posted here, or at least there have been. There was an article about Falkvinge arguing to legalise photographic child pornography, which was posted here. It got a large number of upvotes. This article inside it talks about the issue. The issue doesn't have to be discussed right now, it can be discussed when people at home. People don't have to even look at my comment, though in my judgment it seems as though you might find any sort of discussion when you go to a HN comments thread, some unsavory.
There's also a lot of people who aren't viewing from work. I'm not asking people to discuss my point, though just because you don't want to discuss, it doesn't mean the correct response is to downvote my comment.
It is tangentially related, and frequently we find even more 'off topic' posts getting upvoted, such as even those about the website's JS and CSS quirks. My point ties in well with why certain content can't be carried, which is in line or at least related to the article itself.
I'm really failing to see your point, and it doesn't justify the downvotes.
