I think interpreting the word too literally may not result in a productive discussion here. Especially taking into account that the original comment is translated from another language.
All things considered, it seems plenty obvious to me that "rubbish" is used to express the commenter's frustration.
More particularly, their frustration about how the discussion always devolves into non-technical discourse (the actual thing that they are referring to when they say "rubbish", and "human rights" is one example of such discourse) anytime China is mentioned.
They are frustrated because they think this is in direct contrary to the Hacker part of Hacker News, because Hackers should be more interested in the technology.
