Hmm, this seems on topic and was the opposite of flame bait. I am confused. I was genuinely curious in the interest of discussion and learning. The OP had the word "woke" it, and was not removed even though it is clearly all about politics. I don't get it.
- dang 4y agoIt was a swerve into a generic ideological flamewar direction. We're trying to avoid that on this site because it tends to lead to more predictable, nastier, and less curious discussion. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sort=byDate&type=comment&query=generic%20ideolog%20by:dang https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...

- consumer451 4y agoIf I was king of HN I would just auto-flag any post with the word "woke" in it. That word is never about tech, and is 100% politics, but it feels like it gets a pass here somehow. However, it is also a generic word and not easy to just filter I suppose. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=true&query=Woke&sort=byPopularity&type=story https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=tru...
