The comments seem to break several of the guidelines [1]: Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive. Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. That destroys the curiosity this site exists for. Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. If you want to emphasize a word or phrase, put asterisks around it and it will get italicized. Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading. == We know that terribly unfair and cruel things are happening to people, but enraged comments with implied threats of retribution don't do anything to right the wrong. Let's try to be the change we want to see in the world. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
