"HN has a dominant point of view"

I have difficulties thinking of HN in the singular - from what I can tell it is a group of people with pretty different views on most things. I don't think people get downvoted for expressing different views - pretty sure the times I have been downvoted it is because I've said something crass, irrelevant or just plain wrong!

It's such a relief to read this! Seems so obvious, but the trope of anthropomorphizing the community grows like weeds.
