HN already has an upvote system. This form of censorship is unnecessary unless people are willing to accept a possibly compromised view of a topic to save time.

- lamontcg 3y agoThis isn't censorship.
- sanderjd 3y agoYeah, I'm very tired of seeing this cry of "censorship!" all the time. Private individuals and organizations voluntarily curating / moderating content is not censorship. You can still call things bad - and I think this tool is a bad idea - without calling them censorship.
