I feel like it's inevitable (and not necessarily wrong) considering the content of the thread. The discussion is about Reddit banning some subreddits due to their behavior. SRS is larger than all of the banned subs besides FPH, and exists solely to mock and harass other redditors.

Personally, I think they should all probably be banned if the site is going to be moderated in this manner.

Can we not bring this to HN as well?

When you declare certain points of view to be out-of-bounds you deprive yourself of the opportunity to have your own views challenged.

edit: I admit my comment above was a knee-jerk reaction and that in itself is a problem. One of the best parts of HN is the higher quality of comments and I would be sad if all the comments here had as little effort put into them.

Seriously, I started using HN specifically to avoid this sort of crap on reddit.

I would strongly prefer it stay over there.

seems like this thread is inevitable on HN. I see no harm in discussing it within this thread. It hasn't been "brought to HN" until it's getting in the way of other things.

Is someone suggesting making a SHNS site? What do you mean?
