I can only speak for myself. If the news article has anything to do with tech and things "interesting to hackers", I upvote. For example, the article about Palantir and ICE yesterday [1]. But articles like this one have nothing interesting to me. There are plenty of other places to discuss this like BlueSky, X, reddit, Facebook, etc. I beg you to please spare this last interesting forum. Also it pisses me off how nob…
"But articles like this one have nothing interesting to me". When a post is of no interest to me, I ignore it. I don't read all the comments and reply to the 20th one.
So long as they are relevant to the website’s stated topic. It’s nice to have one place on the internet that is not about US politics.

> But that's not who they're going after, it's everybody, with a focus on ethnic cleansing. This is not yet something most Americans have caught onto. The DHS made a tweet fantasizing about deporting 100 million Americans ( https://www.huffpost.com/entry/dhs-100-million-deportations-... ) - which is roughly what deporting all non white people would look like. And Elon Musk posts white supremacist content daily - and…

The Nazis also ruined the swastika for everyone, even the innocent "good" one that goes the other way and isn't tilted on the corner.

Has nothing to do with me agreeing with them or not, they just tend to be low quality/value in general - more noise than signal on all sides.

There are plenty of websites intended for political discussions. HN, rather explicitly, is not one of them.
I could write about how political discussions reduce the quality (and go against the purpose) of this site, but thankfully Dang has already covered that, so I'll just link to him instead.

On a final note, I'll add that responses like these are a great example of the general degradation of discussion norms that occurs in these types of threads.

I think I can understand why someone from Europe or wherever else might flag these stories because they're not interested (...ignoring the whole Greenland elephant in the room for a second), but given that Scott Adams got a massive post on here despite the thread being mostly political shitflinging for obvious reasons it's really lowering my overall opinion of your average HN user. I'm increasingly inclined to say th…

It's not my "weird fucking content policing", it's literally the stated guidelines for this site -- reiterated repeatedly by the lead moderator, as I linked.
Since you're in such disagreement with the rules of this site, maybe, rather than trying to change them, you should take your comments elsewhere.
