That seems to happen to all michaelochurch.wordpress.com posts. I suspect that it has nothing to do with the union topic. Since July 2012 (my "Don't waste your time in crappy startup jobs") HN has been down-modding posts on my blog, even submitted by other users. (In other news, I also can't submit new links to HN. I could use sock-puppets and proxies to evade that, but I don't care about HN enough to do so.) Consequently, submissions of links to my blog will always fall to the bottom. I am (unintentionally, having never signed up for the role) Paul Graham's Anti-Christ. My comments fall to the bottom even when they have 20+ upvotes, and if I access HN while logged in, it takes 5+ seconds (as opposed to ~200ms when not logged in). I also get the "submitting too fast" message after 3-4 posts in a day. Oddly enough, 7 years ago, I was a major fan of Paul Graham and what he had to say. I considered applying to Y Combinator. I loved On Lisp when I first read it (2007). I did find him to be a little bit closed-minded in his rejection of static typing (when I asked him what he thought about ML and Haskell); however, he wasn't any moreso than most programmers.
