Fuck NameCheap. I have no sympathy towards them after they decided to kill the service for my account, just because I happened to be born in Russia, without even refunding.

Ironically, after all that high morals grandstanding, they are still sending me notification emails "reminding to prolong a yearly subscription". Like, WTF.

[neoromantique]

Considering your comment history -- good job NameCheap.

They are one angry person, from quantum mechanics to politics, not one comment that barely even tries to be friendly. Just bashing.

[foverzar]

That is a very wishful assessment of my identity, ironically given that I've never ever even discussed quantum mechanics on HN.

But yeah, I do act bashing when discussing politics. Do you feel this is somehow undeserved? I don't really see anyone else acting friendly - it's all just one ignorant two minutes hate after another.

Besides, English is obviously not my native language.

[anaganisk]

English is not a first language for many people on this site. The tone of conversation is what's important.

> I don't really see anyone else acting friendly - it's all just one ignorant two minutes hate after another

I just dont understand why you frequent a site that constantly raises your blood pressure so easily and considers the entire userbase as ignorant, unless you want to push a narrative. You can engage in a debate without name calling and being constructive. Your comment history is just bashing all the way. There is a difference between a debate and a fight.

[neoromantique]

That and the obvious narrative pushing of whataboutism and Russian apologism.

[foverzar]

Ugh, this is boring.

Not everything is a narrative and not every omitted fact or forgotten nuance visible from a perspective of a local is "apologism". Back again, kinda hard to act friendly when people are so systemically discriminating against anything that doesn't correlate with their impressions.

What is so wrong with my comment history that you are now accusing me of a thoughcrime? It's just that your comment history is also full of, let us call it "opinionated", arguments, but I'm not acting that you are a worse person than me. Why are you acting like you are a better person than me I wonder?

[neoromantique]

I am saying that being mad or surprised over a company with significant employee base in Kharkiv not wishing to conduct any business with Russian (Located in Russia, not tested by DNA, mind you) customers whilst their city was literally being bombed by Russia is very tone deaf.

And /on top of that/, the fact that almost a whole year of war later you spread Russian propaganda about "we don't know the whole truth, think about what US did in 'nam!", is just cherry on the cake.

[foverzar]

Oh, "tone deaf", nice. Everything is a "tone", a "narrative", a "propaganda" these days, ugh. Well sorry for being an individual and not singing in unison.

> And /on top of that/, the fact that almost a whole year of war later you spread Russian propaganda about "we don't know the whole truth, think about what US did in 'nam!", is just cherry on the cake.

You've just assigned me an image of your ideological enemies and projected the rest from there. Your impression is your problem, not mine - this is clearly not about my comments or their specific contents (because their substance has nothing in common with your assessment), this is you grinding your teeth over the fact that some people may discuss points you don't like.
