Posted and talked about yesterday: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21194008 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21194008 Don't know how people feel about these things being multi-posted, but I kind of like seeing a different thread where more people can comment considering top comments in a thread can be random, and also people's opinions can change as quickly as a day.

Agree. Some people don't refresh Hacker News as religiously as others.

Yeah, this and the other 20 articles should be auto-posted every hour, or stickied to the front page. /s

Eh, maybe I"m reading too much but having 4 or 5 articles on the front page be dedicated to China news is too much for me.

  It's clearly a major topic of conversation and discussion, though.

    Yes and it should be too. On the other hand if you seek content that you can only see in HN and the small amount of similar sites, and when these also get overrun with news that you can already follow on mainstream, it feels like there are no options left. Well maybe except lobste.rs.

      I find the HN “hide” option to work well for uninteresting stories.

  American companies are implementing Chinese censorship rules into American society because the companies are afraid of offending the communist party. China has wide scale prison camps for ethnic minorities. Reports of organ harvesting being conducted on these people. Adds up since china has no wait time for transplants. Along with video of mass maltreatment of these people. Then there's the clashes in Hong Kong. That's just the top 3 problems right now. This has an international effect, whether you shrug it off or not.

    Right. Judging from the responses I'm getting it seems like I'm the outlier. I'll take a break.
