Indeed, I think HN has a bug[1] where posts about labor rights are implicitly downranked. This can happen even when the topic is technologically interesting (such as here) and the workers in question are tech workers. I hope we’ll fix this bug soon, because HN is really the perfect place to voice concerns about labor right issues related to tech workers.
That said there were some pretty goods discussions following the walkout at Blizzard/Activation where this implicit downranking didn’t happen. I want to see more of that.
