There won't be a "here" anymore because of the politics, at least not a recognizable here. That's the absurdity of trying to ignore the 800 lbs. gorilla in the room when he's bashing your head in. Sometimes, the rules need to change to adapt with unusual times. Because silence gives consent.
- stogot 2y agoI don’t understand your comment and the new user status makes it suspect. Either way, it’s against the rules. Discuss politics on Reddit they say, not here
- Gud 2y agoPolitics has been discussed here for as long as I can remember. And I’ve been a member for a pretty long time now.
- stogot 2y agoI don’t say that it doesn’t happen (it is right now). I said it’s against the rules and that’s why the flags happen
- insane_dreamer 2y agoOn HN we discuss tech, which was mostly apolitical until Elon decided to make it very political. So yeah, politics is now in. I don't like it either, but you'll have to take it up with him. Flag all you want, it's not going away until that situation changes.
- Gud 2y agoTechnology was never apolitical. Silicon Valley sprung up from the military industrial complex. One of Tesla’s main driving forces was to ease the burden of the common man.
- insane_dreamer 2y agoI said “mostly” , and that was a different era. The military-industrial complex is well supported by both parties (sadly) so not really a “political issue” in today’s sense.
