There have been plenty, but Hacker News has been very assiduous in flagging every one.

A lot of people support the current regime and have vested interests, political and financial, in normalizing what they want to be the new status quo.

A lot of people simply don't care unless it affects them personally, or they're simply in shock.

Either way, it's politics and Hacker News interprets politics as intellectual damage and tries to route around it. Not much one can do, this isn't a free speech platform, it's a curated speech platform.
