- dang 8y agoWould you please stop it with the flamebait on divisive topics? The account was an obvious troll. If you want to help combat that kind of thing, why not flag the comment? Other users did, which (a) killed it, and then (b) brought it to our attention so we could ban it. That's how to contribute positively in a case like this. Taking HN threads further into flamewar and political rhetoric is exactly what the guidelines ask you not to do. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
