I agree. Its hard to counter the feeling that HN is getting too big for its boots. In certain "culture war" threads the easy to digest opinions are beginning to dominate. Maybe I just payed less attention a few years ago but I never noticed this in the past. Will it spread past the culture war threads or will it not? Who can tell at this point.
