"HN is not one person" and "this might inspire someone" can justify basically anything. It's not really a good argument

- layer8 3y agoThe fact is that enough of the HN audience finds the submission interesting that it has been upvoted to the front page. And you are being downvoted. Which means that a significant enough portion of the audience doesn’t share your assessment. So the rational thing to do would be to adjust your expectations regarding the spectrum of what is popular on HN. Maybe also consider that probably most HN members each individually only find a fraction of the front-page submissions interesting.
