There are so few places to talk about it because one side always has a higher footing then the other. There does not exist a place where both sides are taken at 50/50, that doesn't exist for anything politically motivated. So what you get is people who tend to be around the middle, accepting that both sides are at fault. And then you get the extremist views, and those get comments so they jet up to the top. HackerNews is proportionally North American, so you tend to get larger view set from English speaking North Americans. And non-English articles are largely ignored. And neither of these two populations speak English as their first language. So limiting yourself to English limits your view to English speaking view.
