The same censorship exists when you can’t read a message because it is too gray or white. There is also censorship when a comment is flagged even without actual reason. Another particularly annoying form of censorship is being unable to defend a position when providing something controversial which limits your submission rate. HN often comes out with very tone deaf responses and takes, so I don’t think that it is the best argument. HN is also a rather niche community that caters to a very specific audience.
