I don’t want hacker news to be neutral or biased, I want it to be a site or I can nerd out about tech stuff. Then when I feel like reading about the news of the day or arguing about politics, I’ll leave hacker news, and go to Twitter.

I don’t want hacker news to become Twitter. I don’t want hacker news to become a 24/7 critical theory struggle session.

All I can do as one person, acting within the guidelines, is to exercise my ability to flag stuff too focussed on politics.
