    > But it seems clear to me that ... Many things seem clear to me. One thing that seems clear to me is that many things appear unclear to many people on HN. For example, I didn't see a single comment of "Thank you USA" meme (https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/09/27/why-did-polish-mep-post-thank-you-usa-along-with-image-of-damaged-nord-stream-pipeline/ https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/09/27/why-did-polish-mep-pos...) In the comment section of another article about the situation of the German economy, there were also few mentions of "NordStream" and "Russian gas," which also "seem clear to me." Scenes like these remind me of Bernard's line in West World, "Doesn't look like anything to me."

      I couched it tentatively, but it doesn't just 'seem' clear to me, it's plainly obvious that things are different this week compared to a couple of weeks ago wrt US-Ukraine. And HN are some of the smartest people online, so it can't be that no-one else has had these same ideas. Maybe it's a case of lies so outrageous and in your face that most people can't see them.
