while I appreciate who you are, I've also been on this site almost since the very beginning. I almost never comment, and didn't start commenting for literally years because of the quite obvious political/economic biases of the main contributors, which has seemed in the long run to have held rather steady. There are outliers, of course, but I'd be willing to bet that the proportion of highest voted commenters identifying as pro-labor, let alone critical or hostile to capital, is going to be vanishingly small. especially given that it was originally called Startup News (or something along those lines). Grahams politics are also well known, and I've actually asked him, myself, directly, about them at a well known conference.

I'm also a little weirded out that someone who seems as scientifically/mathematically literate as you would link to a couple of comments as if the story of HNs political biases would be summed up or even broadly illuminated that way.

Again, I know who you are, I know what a pain in the ass the work you do here is, I just think that maybe you're a bit too close to the sun to see this one. My 2 cents.
