It's NIMBYism for jobs. We need a new acronym for it.

This is pretty brilliant after reading all the responses to why HN is so obviously anti-specific things more than others.

I can’t handle hearing another person say “HN is a big place”. Sure. It’s also incredibly obvious how homogeneous it is and how HN essentially forces you to toe the line.

HN has never once forced me to toe any line.

Okay thanks. Anything of substance?

I made a reasonably substantial point. You asserted that "HN essentially forces you to toe the line" and I brought up a counterexample to demonstrate that your assertion might not be entirely correct.

You can toe a line without toeing a line. That's the group involved in enforcing the line.

The person who responded to you showed the obvious logic.

I’m a leftist in tech. HN is not the place where you can publicly behave as an assertive leftist otherwise would.
