"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.

From the guidelines:

- Be kind. Don't be snarky.

- Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

- Eschew flamebait. Avoid generic tangents. Omit internet tropes.

- Please don't post shallow dismissals

- Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle.

- Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.

- Please don't post comments saying that HN is turning into Reddit. It's a semi-noob illusion, as old as the hills.
