Would you have responded in this manner in your capacity as a HN moderator if I were expounding the virtues of Islam?

Or is it only white Christian people who are not allowed to say anything positive about the countries they live in.

Yes, we uphold the guidelines no matter what “side” the commenter is on, and yes, we flag/kill comments and warn or ban users who engage in battle over race or religion, regardless of who they’re for or against. Stop poisoning HN with this kind of rhetoric and stop trying to deflect from your own disrespect of this site and its guidelines. The whole reason HN is something anyone thinks is worth defending is that we have guidelines and we uphold them consistently, regardless of topic or side. If you want to participate here, we need you, like everyone, to make the effort to raise the standards rather than drag them down.
