I can envision an HN where sometimes a mainstream news item about Israel and Palestine another political issues are worthy of discussion. But in my experience of HN so far, a handful of accounts seem determined to turn HN into a “settler colonialism” struggle session, with Israel v Palestine as the ur issue, worthy of the front page every time either party so much as stubs their toe. When they don’t get it, they blame the mods or call their fellow readers “bots” for downvoting.
