By all means, if there are stories about the positive impacts of FB on society, please post them! I don’t think HN would downvote those the same way that it would download Anti-vax articles. I think pro-FB articles aren’t posted because they don’t exist because FB is legitimately a bad actor with no moral compass. No conspiracy needed.

You're right they would not, because it's not possible to downvote posts on HN :P

In reality, people aren't interested in those posts, so nobody upvotes them and they die. Also most content like that would be created by FB itself, and even I don't want to read self-aggrandizing crap.
