The entire web is 1984 now. Crazy couple years
- dang 5y agoWe banned your account for breaking HN's rules, as I explained to you when I banned it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29127479 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29127479. It has nothing to do with your particular statement about gasoline taxes or anything else. You could have made exactly the opposite statement and it would have had the same effect. The deeper issue is that HN is not a site for people who want to defeat their political enemies; it's a site for people who want to have curious conversation and learn from each other. I don't think that's too hard to understand.
