Reminder that Hacker News is a techbro hive of scum and villainy and that Y Combinator is a pile of shit with VC money.
Honestly, the most astonishing thing about Hacker News is that it's not the bottom of the barrel. Lobsters has somehow managed to be even shittier.
(I say "somehow", actually, but we know how: Lobsters is invite-only, and the initial influx of users were Hacker News users who were mad at how "progressive" HN was getting, so the only people who get invites are friends of the worst part of HN.)

@sanspoint @noelle Nope, the site predates Jordan Peterson by... 5 years? We actually have it on the about page.
