Probably for its use of the "TESCREAL" slur. Which it isn't even using accurately, since most people in basically all of the groups in "TESCREAL" think the administration sucks.
The ones with money actively support this administration, and that's all that matters in latter-day American democracy: the ability to fund campaigns and buy political favors.
Why downvoted? It IS a fascist regime you have there in your 1st world shitshow. Get over it and name it as it is.
TESCREAL is a word meaning "a bunch of unrelated groups that Timnit Gebru thinks are nerds", who are not really aligned with the administration.
(I also think they're nerds.)
Nerds using untold wealth to inflict fringe beliefs on societies at scale can do plenty of harm.

It's an acronym or neologism. The groups comprising it are often cult like, but I also don't view that as a controversial statement.

Pictured in the link: zick, pichai, musk, cook, bezos all AT TRUMP'S INAUGURATION. Not pictured, but still a supporter: Thiel.
Why? Because HN is unironically full of dyed-in-the-wool fascists these days.
Maybe working under ruthless, hierarchical corporate structures all your life breaks your brain a little.
