Thank you. Somehow is cool this days to write non-sense in tech forums. The Kurds are also a large ethnic group in Turkey, so is the author of Notepad++ will be adding a mention to them in the next release note? Native Americans in the US and Canada? Buryats in Russia? and the list goes on and on... but hey, I guess is too hard to do a little research before pretending to be cool.

- Yes, that's what you are doing. Are about 1+ million of those groups you mentioned in concentration camps for just being from that group? No, so don't make such absurd comparisons.
Please don't take HN threads further into flamewar, and please don't break the site guideline against insinuations about astroturfing in threads. That's a major rule users need to follow here—otherwise the threads deteriorate severely.
While that's true, it's only because nobody is "ethnically Chinese".
“Chinese” is a nationality, not an ethnicity. Within China, there are 56+/- ethnic groups of which the Han group is the largest.
