Given that the term "culture war" has no set definition and best I can tell is just a dog whistle for "rally the bigots against <least favorite minority group here>", I'm really at a loss as to what your point is.
Are you concerned changing cultural tides will put you on the wrong side of history? Or is it more of an existential angst about privilege? I think we're in agreement that current trends are very serious, although it appears for opposite reasons.
- igravious 8y agoYou haven't a clue what my politics are so stop trying to throw mud hoping some will stick. My initial comment called for less of this kind of thing on HN but it seems that some of use here will always be at pains to show the rest of the world how on the correct side of history we are. How tedious. What this has got to do with Facebook's trustworthiness score machinery I do not know.

This article posted is immensely relevant for the intersection of tech and political discourse, and in such cases, I would personally prefer to see more discussion on HN. If the article is about new advances in Golang, sure, I'd hate to see talk of politics in threads.
