I'm using the word "charitable" in the specialized sense of "replying to the strongest form of an argument", as described by the link upthread.
Your comment isn't flippant (well, at least not until the wild non sequitur at the very end). That puts it on the right side of the most important line. I still don't think it counts as charitable, though, because your criticisms don't engage the meat of the post. I was hoping to write a detailed reply about that, but alas there's no time.
