Nationalistic flamewar is not ok here, let alone drive-by flamebait like this that is as grandiose as it is cheap. We ban accounts that post like this.

Apologies to the community. This post was after a few beers, but inexcusable nonetheless. Won’t happen again.

I've been there. Thanks for the kind reply to a rather harsh chiding.
