> Something tells me its not a coincidence.

Yes, that something being racial prejudice. Sad to see this attitude rife on HN.

Pretending that cultural differences don't exist on this planet is just plain silly. It's sad to see this level of virtue signalling on HN.

No one is pretending that cultural differences don't exist. They're just not statistically connected in any way to these acid attacks.

>Jumping to conclusions that fit your anti-immigrant racial prejudice, pretending that it’s actually about “cultural differences”, complaining about “virtue signalling”. It’s like playing a game of alt-right bingo here.

You forgot to call me a "Nazi" and "bigot" and "facist" and all the other things you ANTIFA folks call those who have different opinions than yourselves.

We've banned this account for using HN primarily for ideological battle, which is seriously not ok here. This is explained in the site guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

Ah, shoehorning “antifa” into the conversation (with vague insinuations that anti-fascism is somehow a bad thing), that’s another one.

How many more alt-right talking points can you squeeze out? Your reaction is so amusingly predictable, it’s sad to see someone so programmed to dullness.

Would you please not create accounts to engage in political flamewar here, regardless of how bad another commenter may be behaving? I've banned this one. As the site guidelines explain (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html), the way to deal with egregious comments is not to feed them by responding in kind, but to flag them. In particularly bad cases you're welcome to email hn@ycombinator.com. We value that sort of heads-up from users, because HN's firehose is much too large for us to see everything that goes on here.
