Explanation of my downvote: 1. You make a claim but no attempt to back it up, or even explain what you mean. Comments that do that contribute in no positive way to discourse, but do contribute to echo chambers. Fortunately, HN is not one, on this topic at least. Let's keep it that way. 2. Your last statement sounds like a flimsy excuse, at best, and includes what sounds like a thinly veiled complaint against privilege being called out. TBH, that last bit actually sounds like a cheeky dog whistle, but I'm not American so my read could be extremely wrong.
