Politics is the mind-killer. As a Russian person living in Switzerland, I would enjoy HN more if I didn't have to look at articles about racism, gender, US foreign policy, US finance, etc. If that's just my personal preference, it could be implemented as some sort of personal filter. But if enough HN users think the same, I think mentioning any political topic in a post or comment should merit a ban.

i'd say, we russians dont even understand these race problems. in general we dont give a damn on races and ethnities.

no longer available. i guess you're trying to show us some people influenced by some western subcultures? see the words 'in general' in my post

I mildly dislike the parent of your comment, but strongly dislike your comment. The investigation you linked to demonstrates about as much understanding of Russian issues as the incorrect auto-translation you opened with (I guess you wanted to say "Check this" but ended up with "Verify this"). Please do not take this as an invitation to discussion, because it isn't. You started a thread about racism under my comment which explicitly asked to not start such threads. Boo.

I am trying to tell you "things have changed".
