Tech has always been political. You think Mitnick and Woz weren't political? You think windows and the powerpc werent political? That social media isn't political?

You don't like seeing politics you disagree with. You just don't think things you agree with are politics.

I come to HN to learn, to be exposed to different modes of thought. To engage in useful creative discourse over disagreements. The idea that HN or tech is free from politics is intellectually vacant thinking.
