We've banned this account for using HN primarily for political battle. That's not allowed, because it destroys the curious conversation this site is supposed to be for.

Before anyone jumps to the wrong conclusion: yes, this rule holds (and we enforce it) regardless of what your politics actually are. For more explanation see https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme....

I realize it can be frustrating to hold minority/contrarian views, but it's not ok to vent that frustration in flamewars on Hacker News. We can't allow that, or this place will soon burn itself to a crisp.

Russian state policy is actually genocide: to freeze Ukrainians until they die enmasse.

That's why Russia is being sanctioned, there is no greater evil.

We've banned this account for using HN primarily for political battle, and for posting flamewar comments and ignoring our request to stop.

Regardless of how right you are or feel you are, or how bad others are or you feel they are, it's not ok to abuse HN like this. It does no good for anyone.

"UNHRC declared the US war in Iraq, Libya and Syria as war crimes".

No, they didn't.

(predictably, Kremlin apologists/supporters of genocide/whataboutists quickly resort to lies, every single time)

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/sep/16/iraq.iraq "Iraq war was illegal and breached UN charter, says Annan"

Even if George Bush went around US punching everyone in their face and telling them that all the wars were war crimes, Americans would accuse him of being a Kremlin apologist.


I'm not American.

And, I'm capable of seeing more than one evil in this world.


> Where are your morals now?

Those wars were wrong, but the question is will you ever say that the Russians are wrong to be committing genocide in Ukraine, and torturing its civilians?.

I suspect you won't.
