Regarding your later submission https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25220803 (and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25221132), this probably died because it violated both the letter of HN's guidelines and the spirit of HN. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html has more, especially:

"please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize."

submit "anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity."

"Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples curiosity."

If your main goal is to make a political or ideological point and you're willing to heavily editorialize in order to do that, the site you want is Change.org.


They just started about 5 minutes ago for me. Can anyone else post the pdf to a twitter feed? This is egregious and must be addressed. This is a legal document, filed last night, with strict penalties for perjury and anyone should be able to share and read it.
