Its a bit ironic to be called a bigot by someone who is upset that I refuse to praise a racist.

- tokai 8y agoAgain you are putting words in my mouth. I'm upset of your lack of understanding for the mentally ill.
- dang 8y agoI'm going to assume that you didn't see the comment I posted warning you that we would ban you if you continued this flamewar. Please stop now.
- tokai 8y agoyeah yeah, I didn't see it. I'll refrain from engaging him any further.
- dang 8y agoThat's a subtle way of sticking the blame on the other person. This is not about "him". It's about respecting the community and its rules. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- tokai 8y agoIt wasn't supposed to be subtle. Arionhardison has been aggressive and insensitive. I have engaged him in good faith. I accept that this turned in to a flamewar (and that it was a flametopic all along), but I object to that I have been name calling or attacking him. What he has written is clearly bigotry. I have been a constructive poster here for years, but I rather take my ban now than taking a warning for talking against hate.
- mmirate 8y ago> you didn't see the comment Aside: occurrences like this are what amaze me at (a) HN's lack of a built-in system of notifying users when others reply to them, or at least a linear view of all replies; and (b) the resulting reliance that people either discover and use third-party scrapers, or be experts with the F5 key and the Mark-1 eyeball.
