Please don't make sweeping claims about what HN “is”.
The HN is a large group of people with a range of views that maps to a normal distribution on most topics, with a slight skew to left-libertarianism. It's common for people to notice "too much" of what they dislike on HN, and then to think the site is dominated by that thing.
"I've noticed" was my wording - communicating my claim and opinion. I will make claims and opinions on a message forum, thank you very much. Unless you want to pull up a specific moderation rule instructing me otherwise.
"Slight skew" is just your claim and opinion. We're both equally entitled to them. I'd be happy to look at actual data: try an anonymous poll on HN for political affiliation sometime. We both know that skew wouldn't be "slight".
Please don't make unfounded counter claims without evidence.
