That tells me that there's both sides reading it, just one is larger. Isn't the goal to preventing an echo chamber having both sides expressing themselves?

For sure I agree, I just tried to check my Reddit account and it has now been suspended due to some activity so that I could find the comment.
Unfortunately I cannot find it but ultimately it was not a debate, it was a classic teen response 'yeah but what have you done about it?!!?'. No value add and definitely nothing worth replying with.
8 years of basically no engagement from me (maybe 30 karma points) I call someone out and bam I'm getting downvoted to kingdom come but at the same time being gilded with silver. It just didn't make sense.
HN has so far been nothing but amazing conversations and it will hopefully stay like this. Big Tech played the PR game and won, PR is what makes a unicorn startup not so much the startup's product these days.
