Troll: a person who makes a deliberately offensive or provocative online post.

You don't have to be wrong to be a troll, you just have to unhelpful and provocative. Which is what your comment was. You just said "its useless" without even providing the smallest effort in terms of an argument.

Two wrongs don't make a right. If you thought that OP was making bad arguments then make good ones.

Personally, i know 4 languages rather well and i do write everything in clojure first and then translate it.

OP's article is called "Why i'm more productive in clojure" This sets a tone that doesn't require evidence because its a very personal. If readers choose to interoperate that as "clojure is better" then i can't blame them, but the author at least had the decor to not state their opinions as evidence.

In terms of evidence for anything Programming language related, even if you had read every study, your still going to consider your projects needs. So even if Clojure showed a reduction in bugs over java (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8558740) you should still consider other factors.
