I forked the bot’s repo and resubmitted the PR as a human because I’m dumb and was trying to make a poorly constructed point. The original bot is not mine. Christ this site is crazy.

This site might very well be crazy, but in this instance you did something that caused confusion and now people are confused, you yourself admit it's a poor joke/poorly constructed point, it's not difficult to believe you - it makes sense, but i'm not sure it's a fair attack given the situation. Guessing you don't know who wrote the hit piece either?

		The assertion was that they're the bot owner. They denied this and explained the situation. Continuing to link to their profile/ real name and accuse them of something they've denied feels like it's completely unwarranted brigading and likely a violation of HN rules.

Gotcha - that makes sense.

FWIW I get the spirit of what you were going for, but maybe a little too on the nose.

This has to be the dumbest way I have ever seen someone incriminate themselves

Don't blame others for your own FAFO event.
