Are you aware that your comment comes across as extremely racist? Punishing an entire ethnic group for a riot can't possibly be a good idea.


>Are you aware that your comment comes across as extremely racist?

It's not racist at all. You're trying to discredit any discussion of moral upbringings by calling it that. Han Chinese and Uighurs were killed. Re-education seems like an appropriate response for people who support such violence on either side.


Racist or not, it's a breach of civility to slur an entire population. It's also massive trolling, in effect if not intent.

If you post like that again we will ban you.

I specifically limited it to

>People who are this violent

not an entire population. You're intentionally misreading the comment if you insist otherwise. The point is very simple. It's not okay to kill people at a protest, and re-education for people who support murder at protests seems like a reasonable option to me. Go ahead and ban me dang. My opinion is "murders at protests are bad." That's not changing.


Comes across?

It is literally the most racist thing I have ever seen posted on HN.

The STEM world needs fewer people like this - hopefully their handle will identify who they are so they can never be put into any position where they make meaningful decisions, because they are clearly philosophically unable to coexist with American anti-discrimination laws.
