“If [...], then justified” is an ethical statement — and as you say, there’s no two ways about interpreting it.
You simply lack the intellectual honesty to admit your own summary of the statement plainly shows it’s an ethical statement, not an incitement to violence.
You disagree with the statement, so you’re making emotional, inconsistent arguments to try discrediting it.
The only person “weaseling” is you — who are contradicting yourself and refusing to address my points.

- bopbeepboop 6y agoWhat specific guideline did these comments break? I believe that you censoring in support of defamation (knowingly false claims an ethical statement is incitement) may incur liability for HN. Incitement has a specific legal meaning (which this is not). You seem to be directly supporting defamation on your platform, as an administrator.
- dang 6y agoThe personal attacks in your GP comment, for example, broke the guidelines egregiously. That should be obvious! If you want specific examples you could start with "Be kind" and "Assume good faith".
