    You can feel this in other sites. For example, in Y Combinator’s Hacker News, most posts about the Palestinian genocide get flagged within minutes.

    There’s no mad people there commenting that Israel is the people of God, because the discourse there is much more mature than most social aggregators, so the flagging is the only sign some people are watching and “sanitizing” these topics.

      It’s a programming/technology forum. It’s very off-topic and I expect that kind of subject to stay away from it. The bane of the modern internet is newbies posting random stuff all over the place without RTFM and without lurking more.

        It allows world news too, since not all hackers are laser-focused in technology, and it’s normal to be interested in how the real world goes.

              I don’t give a fuck about politics or nazi regimes. Politics are off-topic on tech forums. You’re deluded if you think that’s my argument.

              The internet is filled with noobs who think their opinion on any subject is worth spamming every forum since the 90s and that’s annoying. We already had that on newsgroups in the beginning. You’re not worth it. Eternal September and stuff…

              The ADL nazis knows how to trigger people like you wherever you are. They are the 4chan of the politics and it works. If we banned them everywhere, their job would be useless. By arguing and downvoting me, you proved them right. Keep on talking about them if it suits you.

                You should go outside and get some fresh air. Life is not happening in your mother’s basement.
