It looks like you've been using HN primarily for political battle, or at least getting uncomfortably close to it. That's not allowed here—it destroys the curious conversation that this site is supposed to exist for. When accounts cross that line (see https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme... for more explanation), that's when we start banning them, regardless of which politics or ideology they're banning for.

I'm not going to ban you right now because as of a few months ago (say, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23644508 and further back) your account mostly wasn't abusing HN this badly though you were still doing it (e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23609087 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23495773). Please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and go back to using the site for its intended purpose, and please don't post any more flamebait.




Except the Apple comment I don't think I've been making political comments in threads where the topic wasn't political to start with.

And this one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23495773 The OP literally asks for an unpopular opinion... You can't fault me for answering?

But you are right about me being too focused on political comments lately. I wasn't aware I was doing that.

Thanks for your work on HN.
