Hello dang, bringing up CCP concentration camps on a public forum is not flame bait, unless you are trying to hide their existence on an American website.

However there was an antagonistic tone which I won't repeat.



It certainly is flamebait when you bring in an inflammatory and divisive topic into a thread like that. Doubly so after trawling through another account's history in order to find something to attack them with. Please don't do these things in HN threads again.


> divisive topic

The only way Chinese concentration camps are "divisive" is if there are many people who are very pro Chinese concentration camps, and are offended when I refer to them in a negative way. Or, I shouldn't be discussing them at all. Is that what you found to be inflammatory? Bringing up something that is happening?

I already apologized for an antagonistic tone, I won't for pointing out documented history.
