Depending on your views, you can't directly say what you're thinking about certain topics at HN. You need to dance around the issue. Pose questions, give them rope and allow proponents of those ideals to provide their rationales. Once revealed, you can examine these topics.
Perhaps for those who haven't been down these rabbit holes repeatedly, it appears as assumption. The rationales you see may not have been provided explicitly or scrutinized. It can be a bit long-form and tedious, but it is part of assuming good faith.
Consider how your post above might appear to someone who takes an idealistic view of these activist movements. They might not be aware of the Marxist influences. Even if they are, they might genuinely believe that Marxist movements do not result in centralization of power. It is easy to overlook these points.
