I would suggest that Hacker News is considerably more likely to turn the debate to solving climate change than how weird those people are, how much they hate vandalism or what the punishment should be than the average group of people...

Why would you suggest that?

This is a site of primarily rich tech guys who aren’t really affected by climate change and who get off on feeling superior to people who aren’t rich tech guys.

This is a very misguided take. From my interactions here over the years most HNers exhibit more than average levels of empathy and engage in high quality discourse.

Sounds a lot like the protestors, but with more interest in talking about science!

Read any HN discussion about fitness, nutrition, health, etc. It’s always the same nonsense.
