Well, by those grounds, they might as well stay consistent and kick out some of our politicians too while they're at it!

Pretty much. For every project that makes it, thousands die off in the new section mostly unnoticed, let alone on the homepage. Probably have a better chance getting struck by lightning.

I don't buy this. Twitter is in a powerful position to protest for free speech and they are choosing not to. They have the attention of the mainstream public and have a precious opportunity to make a stand for human rights similar to the

Huh? I think you have things misunderstood. These executives are intentionally driving down the value of their employees and restricting their opportunities in what should be a free market. These are not products we're talking about, they'r

Have you considered that their motive may have been to inspire? Life is very frail, and this young girl's accomplishments in life may have a profound positive impact on other children for generations to come. How can you not honor that?

Definitely. If we can't even bite the bullet ourselves, how can we expect others to as well? This isn't about HN, this is greater than that. This is about freedom of life as we know it. Without freedom of information, there is no such thing
