Your point that this is a generational change is interesting and reminds me of boomers who still write double space after a period.

These people found out that interacting with the government has a negative effect on your mental health, or that “looking for job is stressful,” and somehow decided to build a narrative around how “socialist welfare is good.”

A significant aspect of HackerNews is driven by its liberal bend. Don’t say anything that might offend their sensitivities, and you may not be shadow banned. Please don’t say “Trump,” or they will get triggered.

In English we don’t write commas or periods outside the quotes. The proper way is to write them inside the quotation.

- “defect,” a flaw, an error.

- about giving a dam.”

Don’t get me started about “for purposes TBD later.”

People can be terrorists regardless of what they are against. You can be against anything you want, just don’t terrorize and nobody would call you a terrorist. And by the way many are foreigners, not domestic.

It’s because you were not really tallying.

I did the tallying for you. When specifically two countries were mentioned and it wasn’t clear which country the good deed happened in, I awarded 0.5 points to each of those countries.

The top country that is specifically mentioned is the USA. Of countries that are specified as non USA, they accumulated 34.5 points. The USA accumulated 37.5.

The tallying was done at 4:03 PM UTC on December 14, 2025

Your comment history is very odd. Your grammar is always perfect as though you are well-reasoned, but this very comment of yours shows you committing an ad hominem fallacy, shifting attention from the argument to something irrelevant about the person, indicating that you are a Pedantic ad hominem attacker.

Everything that a certain population of the US correlated with the color Blue dislikes is considered hate speech by them, so things become impractical. Thankfully there are fewer and fewer snowflakes.

This is the moment for all those Hollywood personalities and other liberals to learn how to leave for real, not just talk about it!
