Because many HN readers flag anything that they deem to be “politics”


I would say "wrong politics". Atrocities committed by other regimes have no problems staying on top page.


Unless that regime is Israel.


Unless it has computer!


Sometimes even with computer! Don’t want to get uncomfy that the code you’re writing is enabling terrible things.


In the eyes of some in leadership, tech workers should be apolitical worker drones. Weighing in on politics is for people like David Sacks, Marc Andreesen, Elon Musk.
