My complaint was actually about the number of submissions rather than it being submitted or that people shouldn't care.

Ok if that was the case, I understand the sentiment, but the words you chose to make that point were badly chosen.
This has a major impact on a lot of sites, and there are millions of people that do care about Facebook.
It is worthy of a HN submission, although I personally care most about the postmortem to find out what went wrong.
