- dang 6y agoWe've asked you many times to stop posting unsubstantive comments to HN. Cheap ideological warfare complete with a call for political violence? and a tedious cliché at the same time? Obviously not what this site is for. No more of this please, regardless of what you're for or against. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Note this guideline: "Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive." https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html There's tons of previous explanation if you skip over the trivial bits in https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=by%3Adang%20generic%20ideolog&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que.... Also https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=by%3Adang%20generic%20discussion&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... more generically.

- thatcat 6y agoNote that the inclusion of "information activists" on this list makes the scope extremely broad.
- arghzzz 6y agoThis website is pretty awful without an Adblock (on mobile). Couldn’t even get through 3 paragraphs.
