As long as you blame the "correct" people. You can blame politicians, rich executives, Russia, China and you will be lauded here.
You blame the hypocrisy of certain social movements, FAANG employees, Nordic countries, in general anything that can impact the POV of the average HN user and you will be downvoted swiftly. Most websites, this included, do not work to amplify the spectrum of opinions presented but to concentrate it in a tiny, fiercely regulated window. In that sense, old forums, usenet and even the daily mail comment section were more egalitarian.
- the_only_law 6y agoGenuine question: what the hell do Nordic countries have to do with media censorship in general?
- cambalache 6y agoI was talking in general , not just censorship. Despite of what some Americans may think the Nordic countries are not utopias, there is plenty to criticize about them.
