flandish has been consistently attacking others and posting trollish comments.

Example:

> it only makes you seem like the simp for profit piece of trash you are.

Compared to above what you are pointing out here is mild.

Sure—not every comment that breaks the site guidelines is equally bad, although if you take the context into account the GP comment was pretty vicious.

As it happens, I banned both of those accounts elsewhere:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40314730

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40314726

If there's an assumption in your comment that moderation ought to be consistent, this is not possible because we can't moderate what we don't see, and we don't come close to seeing everything.

p.s. It looks like your account is still using HN primarily for political and ideological battle after we asked you to stop doing this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39700299. We ban accounts that continue to do this, so it would be good if you'd stop. For explanations about the principle involved here see https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme....

Thank you. I will tone it down.
