I understand my comment was made in anger, but where is the ideological battle? I am trying to ask people to discuss non-tech-related politics elsewhere, as per guidelines. How else am I supposed to do that? Flagging doesn't work, politically inclined people just unflag it. The parent post is the definition of off-topic; if you won't delete it, maybe you need a new guideline, where in garbage posts like this garbage comments like mine are allowed then? :D I think a good approach would be if posts like this were allowed to accumulate comments and then deleted completely, destroying all the dubious "contribution" and thus disincentivising it? I do hate both ideologies fwiw; as applied to HN however, only one tends to create and promote off-topic political posts like this, or at least I never see the other kind of garbage in the RSS feed.
