hacker news is an coder / sysadmin / tech worker/ IT person's forum. You are correct that such people exist in the EU and UK and indeed, other parts of the world too, and that they frequent this forum. At the appropriate local times of day. And when they are here, they discuss a range of issues inside and outside of tech. Including geo-political issues. The more motivated will also find more narrowly focused forums, but general forums remain popular. In general.
