HN title is incorrect. Should be:
How the 'Places That Don't Matter' Fueled Populism

- dang 9y agoWe changed it to a shortened version of the subtitle in keeping with the HN guideline "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait." The article title was arguably a bit baity—on the edge, admittedly, but threads are sensitive to initial conditions and the title is the biggest initial condition.
