- AnimalMuppet 4y agoReally? HN didn't become Facebook, even though HN is tied to the capitalist class just as much as Facebook is. I have exactly the same relation to capital when I use HN as when I use Facebook (or would, if I used Facebook), and yet the alienation is much higher with Facebook. Marx didn't predict this. McLuhan did. HN is a different medium from Facebook (and deliberately so).
