it's called hacker news. but for starters, "hacker" implies not being spineless or giving a fuck about peer groups. hackers also don't like censorship; so you see how hacker news is anything but. it's an involuntary joke, nothing more.
the word has been appropiated by those who are needy like that: you don't call yourself hacker, just like you don't call yourself saint. only mediocre people to whom it never applied and never will would do that. the end.
