This is just too rich. I am not the one who brought politics here. This would be more properly directed to the people who start political topics. And there are plenty of these topics on HN.
Looking at this disproportional reaction it feels like we have stakeholders here.

Why pick me then? Go few levels up. I do not consider tu quoque being fallacy either. "Do as I say, not as I do" I think describes the situation much better.
