You started a flamewar in this thread and perpetuated it quite nastily. We have to ban accounts that do this, so please don't do it again. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.

My other comments were a bit hotheaded, but where is there something in my original comment that would be grounds for me starting a flamewar? I simply stated a fact: far left magazine interviewing a union head and getting an opinion from a non-expert of warehouse deaths as cause to read with caution.

This is a completely valid opinion and I am trying to make it clear that there is an agenda here beyond defending the death of a poor guy just trying to earn a buck.

What you're describing as "a bit hotheaded" is way over the line at which we ban accounts here, so please don't do it again.

Your root comment was less bad than what you posted later, though it was obviously ideological battle, which is already flamebait.

People like you? Like the original post, you aren't dealing with the substance, you're just slinging insults.

You are violating the first guideline. Which I reproduce here and offer you an opportunity to apologize to me: "Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes."
