I remember back in the day when I first heard about Hacker News. It was probably USENET or a forum somewhere. For a hot minute I thought it was this techie place where hackers discussed news. I quickly realized that it has nothing to do with "hackers". It's a stand-alone subreddit (basically) where capitalists use tech and tech-adjacent issues to rally around capitalism and cheer on the stock market. Any dissent from that line is censored aggressively. It's an echo chamber. #HackerNews
