- skinnymuch 3y agoThis is pretty brilliant after reading all the responses to why HN is so obviously anti-specific things more than others. I can’t handle hearing another person say “HN is a big place”. Sure. It’s also incredibly obvious how homogeneous it is and how HN essentially forces you to toe the line.
- JohnFen 3y agoHN has never once forced me to toe any line.
- skinnymuch 3y agoOkay thanks. Anything of substance?
- JohnFen 3y agoI made a reasonably substantial point. You asserted that "HN essentially forces you to toe the line" and I brought up a counterexample to demonstrate that your assertion might not be entirely correct.
- iinnPP 3y agoYou can toe a line without toeing a line. That's the group involved in enforcing the line.
- skinnymuch 3y agoThe person who responded to you showed the obvious logic. I’m a leftist in tech. HN is not the place where you can publicly behave as an assertive leftist otherwise would.
