The Rust comparisons should end. There is nothing to be gained from it.
It was not the D supporters on the Reddit discussion who brought Rust into the mix. Although I agree with you that trashing another language, whatever it may be (maybe C++ is fair game), isn't a good way to sell D. But what should be done if someone says "why choose D over Rust"? You can't just reply, "Oh, I guess you are right, Rust is better ... I am heading back to the D forum now!"
