> If your barometer for actual support is Reddit sentiment, I've got news for you...

I'll write to President Sanders about this issue straight away!

9 out if 10 paid astroturfers and bot accounts agree with me!

Trying to imagine who would be paying for bots to support killing flock cameras. Who would profit from that? Seems more likely to go the other way.

Russia greatly benefits from political instability and turmoil in America and encouraging stuff like this is their modus operandi. I say this as somebody who very much dislikes the idea of Flock.

Just curious, but what's the basis for this claim? I've heard it a lot. But I feel like this in itself is a political statement more than one rooted in sound facts.

Flock?

If flock is paying people to support destroying flock cameras, sign me up!

Well, semi-plausible, a wave of "violence" against their cameras would surely excuse installing even more cameras to prevent said "violence".

Never underestimate 5D chess mastery of big money and big agendas.

reddit has been running a reverse eugenics program for over a decade. at this point, 9 out of 10 are genuine retards.

Hacker News, on the other hand, is populated exclusively by the most elite and intelligent anonymous forum posters on the English-speaking internet.

it could've been, if dang and whoever else runs this place had the balls to summarily ban politics here. since they do not, tacitly allowing the shills and the activists to do their thing, this place is rapidly moving in the same direction, with terminally online 999999 karma users playing the same role as reddit mods in suppressing dissent - I strongly suspect it takes only two or three of them to get a comment [flagged].

Many things in tech have social and therefore political consequences

political discussion is worthless when only one side is allowed to participate.

“This thing thats easy to measure agrees with me.”

Shows lack of critical thinking and rigor.
