Is it a political statement if it's also a statement of fact? Sure, the comment has some color to it, I'll concede that, but one can no longer post these kinds of things on Twitter and get the honest engagement from community members one used to. It's no longer a welcoming place for this kind of discussion.

With no account, I can no longer read comment chains on Twitter. It will only show the direct comment linked to. If you go to the user's page, all you see are the promoted tweets. There's no way to access the timeline sequentially anymore.

With those restrictions, you're writing only to a captive audience if you post on Twitter.

So you are technically correct, you literally cannot post these things on Twitter.

> Why does this guy think it's acceptable to bitterly insult so many people,

Won’t someone think of the people?

My mom is on X - I don’t see how that offhand remark insults her

> I think HN should have a policy for submitted content that is along the lines of the policies in place for comments

We can already flag and vote - what more censorship do you want ?
