Yeah, there's definitely someone mass-downvoting anyone who criticizes the piece in any way. Dunno if it's that guy or not. But it doesn't hurt to have clear, concise answers to deflecting questions in the comments for skim-readers to see.

It's been a little frustrating (I guess that's the word closest to what I'm feeling) as I've typically viewed HN as a place that went more for technology and science rather than... other things.

I've noticed the same thing. It's unsettling. I haven't always agreed with the HN consensus on things, but until quite recently that consensus seemed to be honest and well-intentioned.
