Thanks! I appreciate your taking the time to do this.

Of the 10 links you listed, 7 seem to me obviously to break the site guidelines and I've flagkilled them. One, incidentally, was from an account that we banned earlier today (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43042278), and another was from an account that we banned a couple days later (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42483610).

Of the remaining 3 of the 10, I disagree with you about saagarjha's comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42907076. That one seems thoughtful and in keeping with the site guidelines. It does use a lot of sort-of trigger words (I counted "trans", "vegan", "left wing", "Democrat", "progressive", "conservatism", "Republican"), but surely we're not going to punish people just for using words like that.

The other two seemed borderline to me, although I confess that one was so long that I couldn't read it before becoming le tired.

I'd be very interested in seeing them, and I hope it's clear that I really mean that. I don't want to argue about this—I want to see what you're seeing.
