Sorry, no. If HN is syndicating alt-right hate magazines, I'm going to call it out, and keep calling it out. That's eating more than HN, it's eating society. If you're complicit, then I'll call you out too. This is not the time in history to prioritize civility.

HN exists to gratify curiosity. People come here to get away from grandiose battles and shrill rhetoric. It's only a small minority of the community who want to use it for such things. The rest find it tedious because it's all so predictable—in fact, it gets more predictable as it gets hotter, and above a certain temperature all such comments are the same.

I enjoy discussion on HN because it's moderated to remain below this temperature of predictability.
