Your comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36195570 doesn't contain enough information to communicate your intent. It just comes across as a cheap putdown. If you read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html it should be easy to see how a comment like that is against the rules here.

At another level, I completely appreciate how the atrocities and tragedies of the past are still affecting people today and thus I understand and appreciate how you feel.

At the same time, that doesn't make generic ideological battle (which "speaking out against the terror and genocide of the Soviet Union, lest it becomes forgotten" is definitely an example of) on topic for HN. We want curious conversation here. The state you're describing, of battling for people who were genocided in the past, is entirely justified but it is not a state of curiosity. It's therefore off topic for this site.

To say that something is off topic for this site is not a criticism or judgment. Many legitimate, valuable things are off topic for this site. That's because we're trying to have a very specific kind of forum here. It's not a place where "anything goes" - it's a place for a specific kind of interaction.
