I accept your reason, and will avoid further comments here on this topic. But I wish to clarify (to you) that I did not call anyone names. I called the term Islamphobia "stupid", because nothing good comes from using such a term.
It's not a real word. You allowed the comment on a tribute thread, to imply that Australia is to blame for the man's death, due to its racism/phobias.
A psychopath was to blame for NZ, not whatever that linked PDF on parent comment accuses Australia of. As an Australian, I can assure you we are hurting down here and in shock. But I will refrain from this point.
- dang 8y agoThe guidelines use the term "name calling" in a somewhat different sense, basically referring to pejoratives that can be taken out of a comment without loss of information. "Stupid" counts as name-calling in that sense, even though you weren't calling anyone names in particular. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
