It's also one of the most dog-whistled racist communities I've been on. Unfortunately, calling out that behavior gets you targeted as a SJW, or something else.

But yeah, on some posts, I get really uncomfortable on HN.
- paulpauper 5y agolike what example
- gunfighthacksaw 5y agoI agree with your point of view even if I wouldn’t have phrased it like that. I’ve read / posted / shitposted stuff on here that would get me ratiod or yalled on other social networks, and would definitely lose me friends if I publicly repeated it, or family if I pushed it politically. I can’t think of any examples off the top of my head because I read hundreds of stories per week on here and only notice it when I see a (not downvoted) comment that makes me go WOOOOOOW.
- aaomidi 5y agoYeah I didn't really phrase it the right way when I posted that. But essentially my experience matches yours.
