HN doesn't prohibit people from being wrong or unquestioningly repeating government propaganda so long as they don't exclusively use HN for ideological battle and respect the other rules.
So if you want an Xist to get banned, you don't need to provide references that they support X, but that they do so in a way that is against the rules (such as exclusively posting about X). Also, you shouldn't do that in the comments but by emailing hn@ycombinator.com with the relevant facts, so that the mods can decide on the correct action to take without publicly putting anyone on the spot.
- iamshs 7y agoI mailed dang and he didn't agree with me and I respect that, since I agree with his assertion that I was being aggressive which fueled ideological battle even more. Some of the accounts that I called out are again in here repeating same governmental propaganda. Let's see if something can be done about them.
- thewhitetulip 7y agoAnd you'll notice that they're new accounts. Probably the same person creating multiple accounts Best course of action is destroy them ideologically and let other sane people downvote them to hell
