Probably upset Trump supporters (if the election went the other way, it'd likely get flagged by Biden supporters) - HN is a diverse group.
The HN guidelines do say politics should be considered off-topic: "Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon."
There's a ton of duplicate (even if separate URLs) submissions.
- cozuya 6y agoLets be realistic, the comment threads on this site almost always lean right.
- bdcravens 6y agoI don't know that I'd agree, but the point is, we don't have to care. Whether the comments are left or right, we don't want HN to become a political comments free-for-all. There's plenty of places on the Internet (as in, everywhere that isn't HN) for that.
