We've banned this account because all it seems to be doing is posting flamewar/unsubstantive comments. Even though I hate to ban any account that's been around HN for as long as 9 years, we can't have that here—it's totally against the letter of the rules and spirit of the site.

Btw, it's particularly bad to post like this if your position on the underlying topic is correct, because then you end up discrediting the truth as well, which harms everybody. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...

If you don't want to be banned, you're welcome to email [email protected] and give us reason to believe that you'll follow the rules in the future. They're here: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. But please don't create accounts to break HN's rules with.

I think a notable absence of evidence that should be easily available and is not is perfectly reasonable. It points towards withholding of positive findings. Your statement is also needlessly inflammatory and doesn’t encourage discussion. Keep your ad hominem attacks to yourself.

> Leave the discussion to adults.

This is rude and condescending. Please restate your counter-argument to be more substantive.
