What is this highly significant political event you talk of? I read your text several times, but couldn't find where you said what it actually is. Could you spell it out? (I don't read/watch much news lately, maybe I should know.)
- AnimalMuppet 7y agoI presume, impeachment. To address the original question: SB50 is something that people have strong opinions on, but the opinions are at least somewhat connected to data, experience, and reason. It is therefore possible for HN to have a reasoned discussion about it. And, reading the comments on the SB50 article, HN did that fairly well. HN is very unlikely to have a good discussion about impeachment. It would turn into a flame-filled partisan shouting match. HN is right to steer clear of that topic. But SB50? HN covers stuff about the livability of cities somewhat regularly. We care about that kind of stuff because a lot of us live in cities. SB50 is at least somewhat related to that kind of topic.
