New people aren't allowed to have opinions or take part in discussions?

Sure, we just have to take into account the elevated likelihood that, for instance, you are just playing out a caricature of opinions as a strawman for your main account to knock down.

But being wary of such head games all the time gets tiring. So maybe better to not interact with very fresh accounts.

I can vouch for such opinions and feelings being really held by a male human with an older-than-two-weeks HN account.
