- SanjayMehta 9mo ago"You're posting too fast" means you're telling the truth.
- vee-kay 9mo agoThe links and news I have shared can be easily verified. The truths are there for those who wish to see. I type fast though, LOL. Bad habit from my early days as a programmer and blog writer. ;-)
- SanjayMehta 9mo agoI was referring to Hypocrisy News' response to getting a bunch of downvotes in quick succession.
- AlexeyBelov 9mo agoI know that it's against the guidelines to make comparisons to Reddit, but this is exactly what I frequently see there. People complaining about 4 downvotes and telling everyone how they are being silenced for being truthful in the sea of lies, or whatever else. Very, very often this is some form of lashing out and has no basis in any reality.
- SanjayMehta 9mo agoHypocrisy News is just a politer version, with fewer bots.
- AlexeyBelov 9mo agoThis doesn't pass the smell test. People are "telling the truth" every day on this platform and only a small % of users are so disruptive they have restrictions applied to their accounts.
- vee-kay 9mo agoAh, I wasn't aware of that. I thank you for the heads up, my friend. But I feel that if my account gets restricted or suspended on HN because of downvotes on my comments that merely state some hard truths, then so be it. It would be a judgement on HN, not on me. I will simply go elsewhere to speak up the truths.. Someone has to speak for those innocents whose voices have forever been silenced by evil people.
