Could you please not use HN for political and ideological battle? You've posted dozens of such comments already. We ban that kind of account because doing that destroys the curious conversation that the site is supposed to be for.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of HN to heart, we'd appreciate it.

Edit: actually you've broken the site guidelines so repeatedly and so badly already that I think we need to ban this account. 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.

I love your characterization of the Republican party as just honest people who get censored by the big bad censoring Democrats.

Let's take this election for example. Republican leaders and officials have jumped on the misinformation train and are now peddling unfounded claims of election and voter fraud. Twitter keeps suppressing those tweets and tagging them as fake, this in turn makes the Republicans mad because they can't spread what they see as reality.

Ignoring the fact that Republicans are the source of most of the misinformation you see online right now might make it seem like they are being censored, but in reality it's just cleaning up what can only be described as dishonest, anti-democratic and delusional lying.
