We've banned this account. Inflammatory nationalistic rhetoric is not welcome on Hacker News. (The irony of doing that while criticizing nationalism in others is also worth noting.)

We understand the temptation, but please don't create accounts to break HN's guidelines with. Doing that will eventually get your main account banned as well.

I prefer to think of this comment as more of a critique on the Chinese government than the people.

However, with the way it is worded, you're right it seems to be a direct attack on people.

It is unfortunate that people of a nation get lumped together when discussing bad government policies.
