Chinese investment money is everywhere so they try to control the narrative. I have seen for sometime that on HN, we are open to criticize but don't take a standpoint unless its something to do with western government.

I think this is due to the flame war or rating system of HN, where active discussions are relegated to oblivion. Instead of trusting biased and funded media - we here need to introspect, without us being silenced.

May be we are mostly left so we don't have a much stronger opinion unless its right - is that the case?. Just curious - why the slack?.
