Given how much the term "cancel culture" is being thrown around, I think that if someone got fired because of something they posted in HN (specially if it's a normal and reasoned opinion like almost all of the ones I'm seen in this thread) we would have seen it go round the presses five times over. I think a lot of it is echo: someone creates an anonymous account to say something because they think they're at risk, people see it and think that they're at risk too and repeat that and in the end you have a lot of people worrying about something that practically does not happen.
