Was it in-appropriate under a post that was itself politically-charged? I've seen quite a lot of others advocating for political policies without censure. For instance, I saw a large number of commenters arguing about the pros and cons of UBI under a recent post about Yang's automation fears being over-blown.
- dang 7y agoThat's a somewhat complicated question, because the OP in this case was probably a bad one for HN. But the short answer is yes, it was inappropriate even under a post that was itself politically charged—because sometime good submissions are politically charged. In those cases following the guidelines is even more important than usual, and also is harder than usual.
