Take a look at the comments left by that profile. I don’t think that they would be able to understand what you are saying here, all they see is red.

A partial recent comment “qcnguy” made: “DEI is an immoral, hate based and anti-truth ideology. Requiring the PSF to dump DEI if they want the money is good for everyone, because DEI is bad for people”

It's worth pointing out that this profile has been around for three months and already has enough karma to have access to the "flag" and "vouch" tools.

Even on HN, we're still human and hungry for controversy.

It's also worth pointing out that despite this thread being full of ridiculously low quality posts, I haven't flagged any of them. That's the sort of thing DEI leftists do, not everyone.

It doesn't matter if you have used them in this thread or not. An account of your age and your disposition should not have access to automated moderation tools, period.

Moderation via easily gamified populism is the worst kind of moderation.

Because the leftists flagging and downvoting everything they disagree with in this thread are clearly exemplars of excellent user moderation? Knock it off.

This is a contradiction. There's no such thing, only shades of bad, and HN has about the worst possible implementation.

For what it's worth, I didn't flag or downvote you. YC is seemingly fine with your behavior, and I've seen much worse out of people who have been here longer. I'd rather your mask-off rants be out in the open than swept under the rug.
