Can't read it. But I'm assuming it isn't arguing that the government needs to nationalize all social media platforms, repeal Section 230 protections and make content moderation illegal, like half of Hacker News was until Elon took over Twitter, when suddenly they became stalwart supporters of free enterprise.

    Whoa, you can't post like this to HN. Worse, it looks like you've been using this site primarily for flamewar and ideological battle. We ban accounts that do that, regardless of what they're for or against. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. I don't want to ban you because you've been here for 7 years, but if you keep this up, we'll end up having to—so if you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting, we'd appreciate it.

      "it looks like you've been using this site primarily for flamewar and ideological battle" So you can attack my motives at will and I can't protest or I get banned, but if I criticize someone then it's "ideological battle" and "flamewar". As Mel Brooks says, "It's good to be the King."

        I don't think I said anything about your motives? I'm sure they're good; we just need you to read the rules and follow them. It's not a borderline call to say you've been breaking them. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html (p.s. I didn't flag your comment. I did unkill it.)

    If you've got nothing more substantive to offer than a personal attack and some weird imaginary tangent then I think we're done here.

      My, if you had kept up this well before then we may well still have had something to talk about. Alas.
