I see that ytrytr's comment is now "dead" but I think they say what needs to be said, so I copy and paste it here: ------------------------ My favourite thing about Hackernews is this type of faux intellectualism that people like to exhibit. So please tell us, u/car_analogy, what exactly is your issue with this report? Do you not think institutions that participated in and benefited from slavery should face some reckoning? Or will a sister article praising the people that fought against slavery pacify you? I just don't understand this HN obsession with always trying to find some 'intellectual' contrarion viewpoint to every single thing, especially in any matters of race of discrimination.
