Please don't take HN threads into nationalistic flamewar. Your comment is bad enough (and already against the site guidelines) as a generic tangent and as flamebait. Tossing Molotov cocktails ("imperialist bully") into the thread is downright destructive.

Edit: you've unfortunately been breaking the HN guidelines egregiously in other places recently too (e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26914977). No more of this please. Regardless of how wrong or badly-behaved other people (be they HN users, celebrity CEOs, or imperialist bullies) are or you feel they are, you owe this community better if you're participating in it. Other people doing bad things is a poor non-excuse for setting this place on fire.

This is not nationalistic at all. I'd say it about any country exhibiting this type of behavior.

If you throw pejoratives at $country, that's going to lead to a nationalistic flamewar. It is not complicated.

No more flamewar comments of any kind, please. It's not what this site is for.
