The problem with the comment was not that it was uncomfortable. It was that it was basically a rant and a bunch of links to sites about your particular political affiliation, which was not the topic of this post.
Even a discussion about how the global warming debate has devolved into mere rhetoric would be only tangentially related to this post and likely would have been voted down for being off-topic.

(Yes, I’m one of the theoretical python volunteers, I just haven’t got reddit to work right on my machine yet … but I’m nearly there!)
