The root comment is literally a Facebook employee who is intentionally trying to change the narrative. An employee of a company that has been fined billions for privacy breaches, that was responsible for literal voter suppression https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/dark-money-investigations/t... etc etc

HN "guidelines" say "Please don't post shallow dismissals" -- Don't allow FANG to astroturf these forums.

Are you suggesting that people working at companies you don't like should be banned from HN simply because of who their employer is, or that they should not be allowed to reveal conflict of interest when discussing topics related to their employer?

Not at all. I’m saying it should be supported to meet any employee’s bias with thorough skepticism.
