This style of commenting is completely unacceptable on HN. You can't just blithely speculate about fellow community members being “evil”, or indeed anyone else; people can do wrong without being evil, and the first rule of the In Comments section of the HN guidelines is to “be kind”. Some of your comments about controversial topics are egregious enough to warrant a ban. I don't want to ban you because some other comments are substantive contributions, but we need you to avoid inflammatory, ideological comments in future. Please take a moment to remind yourself of the guidelines – https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html – and take the intended spirit of the site more to heart.
