no i am not under the belief of anything other than mentioning PG in a slightly bad light will get me downvotes or a ban on this platform.

It is not PG, it is your sneering and arrogant attitude that attracts downvotes.
I haven't downvoted you, but if I did, it would be for the tone of your comments alone. I don't care about PG one way or another, but I am sick of the total level of glibness on the Internet, and while I gave up on mainstream social media, I would prefer HN to stay a little bit friendlier and less toxic than Twitter or Reddit.

This is not the point i was trying to make.
