Your assertion is hard to verify without context. Can you explain why / point to HN guidelines etc.?

  Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

    I'm not sure it's way off the guidelines as in "anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity". It's not very tech geeky though.

    While it touches on a lot of political topics, the essay felt more about economics to me than anything else.
