Hacker News: where anonymous cowards call others anonymous cowards and make baseless accusations of racism
Apologies for the meta-discussion, but this sort of comment is unbecoming of hacker news. Instead of calling anonymous commenters names, we should discuss their ideas.
The commenter is quite clear that he or she is calling into question the competency of the Ghanaian space program because "its not even a new design, they literally just used the cubesat platform and launched it from United States."
Similarly, the connection between calling this article the space-race equivalent of "affirmative action" and the alleged racism of the author of the comment is unclear.
If you actually believe the author of the comment is a racist, you should make your case. The author's racism doesn't seem "blatant" to me, and presumably wouldn't to most of the hn community.
