Insulting other nations as uncivilized is one of the worst things you can do in an internet flamewar, where by 'worse' I mean 'producing more of the same, only more so'. We ban accounts that comment like this, so please don't do it again.

More generally, please don't post unsubstantive comments. The combination of uncivil+informationless is particularly toxic.

Wait, how does that work? Does HN track upvotes for posts disliked by the mods, and somehow penalize the associated accounts?
