I expected any discussion of the memo to be quickly shut down, its supporters classed as filthy misogynists. It was surprising to see over 1,000 comments and upvotes. I'm glad that it's becoming OK to discuss these topics again.
- dcposch 9y agoA few hours later, it's been completely removed from the main HN page (even a few pages in), despite 1600+ votes. It's a shame that the administrators of this site feel the need to shut down discussion on important issues like this. The story is clearly important and less than 24 hours old, and already it's been forcibly removed from the front page in favor of a bunch of 15-vote ephemeral Javascript trivia posts.
