We have to ban accounts that break HN's rules like that. I don't want to ban you, because you've also posted good things like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33145319 recently. Ok, you've posted one good thing (that one) recently. Still, it was pretty good and I'd rather persuade you to use the site as intended, if that's remotely possible, than to ban you.
If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, I'd personally appreciate it.
Why is Hacker News filled with political nonsense that gets hundreds of comments, while the programming topics get few or go ignored? It is so frustrating to try to have a conversation here, where people rather downvote and flag than write rebuttals. I tried to contribute to this forum, but my novel work goes ignored; my submission here with highest score merely hit hipster bingo.
What am I supposed to do?
Your account's submissions aren't specifically being penalized, but https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33052487 was killed by our software because your submission history is getting classified as "primarily promotional", which is against the site guidelines ("Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity." - https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html). The way to prevent that from is to post a diverse mix of interesting/unrelated articles and include your own stuff as part of the mix.
Nearly everyone's "novel work goes ignored" - that's the unfortunate consequence of frontpage space being the scarcest resource (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...). It's nothing personal—it's hard for everyone.
Re the question of politics on HN, some political overlap is inevitable on a site whose mandate is intellectual curiosity. Lots of past explanations can be found here: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so....
What you're supposed to do is follow the rules: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. I know HN can be frustrating, but vandalizing it with aggressive attacks and flamewar helps nothing.
