I actually think you are Chinese. Why lie to make your point?

We've banned this account for breaking the site guidelines egregiously.

Personal attacks are not ok. Smears like this are particularly not ok. If you don't want to be banned, you're welcome to email hn@ycombinator.com and give us reason to believe that you'll follow the rules in the future. They are at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

The truth is that the HN community is diverse and divided, with plenty of people on all sides of this issue. Attacking people personally (let alone nationally, ethnically, or racially) simply because they disagree with you is the epitome of what we don't want here. This is not a China issue, it's a Hacker News issue, an internet issue, and frankly a human issue.

Plenty of past explanation here:

Chinese people are allowed to have opinions and argue their beliefs as well, so your suspicion here is immaterial.

You should assume good faith. I know several non-Chinese both on HN and in real life who defend these same points.
