It is! Nice move, though, trying to suggest that we're disagreeing with what you've said because this apparently isn't an open discussion, rather than accepting the simpler (and more accurate) explanation -- we're not buying what you're arguing.
"Open discussion" doesn't mean that every opinion given is of equal value. "Open discussion" means a poster is free to say whatever he or she wants to say, and everyone else is free to respond. And sometimes that response is going to be something along the lines of "What you said is stupid."
ETA: My teammate nittanyalum and I posted at about the same time. She did a much better job than I of being succinct.
