There are tons of political discussions on HN. It's a difficult area, because some is on topic while some tends to turn into flamewar that destroys what the site is supposed to be for—but none of that has to do with the community "not caring".

Please don't post unsubstantive flamebait, and please don't post supercilious dismissals. It would be nice if you'd stick to the site guidelines so we don't have to keep banning you.

that's cool and all, but i was pointing a fact about the audience (case in point, it was the bottom comment on the thread). And I didn't put it in a way that gave away if I i think that is a feature or a bug :) take it easy.

It should not surprise you that a group of people who mostly live across the world from Uganda is only intermittently interested in Uganda.
