Switching to anger is a practical way of dealing with disappointment - it makes it easier to move forward and take action... Your comment may help some people get over being rejected and its not like YC is affected by how people they rejected handle things.
yeah but you can write the truth without being an ass. Actually bother to make the case that YC isn't the be all and end all. Just stating it (not that you even went that far) doesn't add anything so you're being downvoted for being noise, not because you're speaking the "truth" and being oh so brave to do it on news.yc

Uh oh, downvoted for writing the truth? That's /never/ been done before--not /once/!
Perhaps it is because your comment did not add anything useful to the discussion, but instead came across as an unproductive and unsubstantiated rant.
