As I recall Hacker News also had a very lengthy discussion when Patreon banned pornography, which I wouldn't say was effecting "conservative windbags". In fact I recall it was argued this move disproportionately affected the LGBT community, which evidently often crowdfunds their pornography. A similarly lengthy discussion was had for a similar story concerning Tumblr. In response to accusations of bias, dang has stated something along the lines that people tend to view HN as having a bias contrary to their own, no matter what their own happens to be. From what I've seen that rings true.
