Can you please stop using HN primarily for political battle? That's a violation of the site guidelines and the spirit of intellectual curiosity that, against the odds, we're trying to keep up here.

I would say we're having a respectful discussion about politics, not a "political battle".

I believe you in this case but when an account is using HN primarily for political arguments, that breaks the site guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html).
I've written many explanations of why we do it this way, if you or anyone is interested: https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme...

I'll stop posting then and if there is ever any reference or link to me on HN, remove it. Thanks.
I'm happy to absolutely no contact with HN/YCombinator/related companies if they do the same. :)
Do you feel I should be held responsible for the actions of Trump given:
A) I didn't vote for him.
B) I didn't really want to vote for Clinton, but I did.
C) I didn't have a third option with a realistic chance of winning the presidency.
D) The "lesser evil" voting strategy has been my life since I turned 18 and I can't really stand either party.
If you answered "No", you just admitted there is no true majority in the US since this is how a third of the electorate votes.
