A lack of resonance doesn't prevent some concepts from being universal.
You're taking it too far by saying that no concepts are universally applicable to human beings.
If I made a post saying "We need to eat to live a healthy life", would that not be a universal truth? If it doesn't resonate with some people (e.g. some quibble: "We can puree our food and drink it" or "intravenous injection works for me", and ignore the serious disadvantages of both choices) is the scientific truth of "we need to eat to live a healthy life" not true?
Relativism to an extreme degree is next to nihilism.
I believe his comment is justified for this particular article because the author specifically says, "The results are almost always incredible...And it works for everyone. Even if you hated school writing assignments, you will love Freewriting."
No post on HN will ever resonate with everyone. Take that as a given, because every post could just as well have a disclaimer like this.
