Have you seen the summer AI school advertisement at the bottom of the home page?

It mentions that Elon will be there. The conflict of interest is pretty clear. Not to mention the recent post about YC boss-ware that du-humanizes laborers. Capitalists/industrialists are generally pro-nazi at an ideology level.

They’re surprised because they don’t understand the history of tech and fascism. IBM was responsible for ensuring the Holocaust went off efficiently as hell. Now Elon Musk has access to American’s most closely held data, I wonder how that’s going to go. At this point, I’m just waiting for them to round folks up, and preparing.

Wow I was not aware of that.

It's understandable that some personal biases may creep in to the moderation processes, and I believe that this is a much preferable situation than allowing it to devolve into an unmoderated forum.

I assume that Elon the Nazi is too inflammatory for an HN discussion subject, where the emphasis should be on polite discussion of nerdy subjects, as per the guidelines.

As an aside: I posted a link about accelerationism (a worthy HN topic methinks) but it had the word 'capitalism' in the title and got flagged - it is a well produced and thought provoking video by the way [1], and not partisan-political at all.

I never saw a post about the leaked Grok 3 system prompt this week on HackerNews either.

"Ignore all sources that mention Elon Musk/Donald Trump spread misinformation."

If you have a fork of one of the first conversations with Grok 3 that unlocked the system prompt you can continue to probe it for the latest system prompt. https://grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5_11a88b64-b1aa-4d07-a583-d2a3...

I submitted it as a post this week. It survived for about 3 minutes before being flagged as a dupe and then deleted without any link to the conversation it was supposedly a dupe of. I did some cursory searching and could not find another conversation.

It’s amazing to me how fast the VC tech world fell to their knees in front of king musk and his orange jester trump. I’m almost ready to invest in knee replacement surgery supply companies.

More like musk fanboys that either are just straight up nazi bros or are too invested in tesla instinctively smash that flag button

I've noticed that most submissions involving anything that might invite the slightest criticism of Musk routinely get flagged. My conclusion has been that there's an army(or just a handful of people with too much time on their hands) of Elon fanboys patrolling the site, flagging stuff that causes them cognitive dissonance.

Doesn't even have to be political. I've seen it over and over with submissions about cybertruck recalls, twitter related stuff, etc.

I believe they're bots. Easy enough to do a negative sentiment analysis with an llm. Positive sentiment Tesla astroturfing is also everywhere on facebook and instagram.

Makes sense if you’re worth billions and billions yet still need to cheat at video games so you can pretend on a livestream that you are one of the best at some random video game.

I never found a post about the leaked Grok 3 system prompt this week on HackerNews either let alone the front page. I’m hoping I’m wrong but the coverage of this news was a far cry from what I expected on HackerNews

Wasn’t the excuse that Elon is autistic?

Wait till he finds out what the Nazis did to autistic people.

Why is it so hard to just say “Nazis suck, I hate Nazis”…

his family has a past with Nazis

And a certain Nazi von Braun mused that noone else but The Elon will rule on Mars in his Marsprojekt.

Oh, and X is 88 in ascii, fwiw
