Facebook is the Enemy Now

Meta: the hackernews community is clearly fixated on some topics and will always upvote articles attacking FaceBook, Tesla, Bitcoin, social justice, Trump, and maybe a few others. A lot of the submissions are low effort and beat out more interesting posts.

Is there any way to fix this? I come here for the interesting discussions, but the repetitive negative articles are dragging this website down IMO.

Submit articles you think are interesting, upvote those you think are interesting, flag those you think aren't appropriate for the site, contribute comments which move the discussion forward in substantive ways, flag/downvote those you think aren't appropriate. Those are pretty much the tools we have at our disposal. Things we don't like are easy to see. Help create the site you want it to be. It does take more work, but I think that's the main way forward.

I guess I'm here to make the same point, though mine was more flavored like "I'm sure this was breaking news in 2010."
