Is everything culture war all the time now on this site? Every post becomes a stupid comment section where we'd be better off getting an LLM to write the comments for us.

Here it's people trying to insert their affirmative action narratives and also rant about California a bit (in a backhanded way).

We can do better.

What kind of discussion did you expect on a post like this? Obviously everybody is going to talk about the politics involved, that's the only thing that you can discuss here.

Honestly we'd be better off cutting out everything political and err on the side of being over-inclusive with "political." California deserves to be dunked on for a lot of things but should hacker news be the place for that?

I'm sure someone will glibly informs me that "everything is political". So please tell me how "High-Performance server for NATS.io, the cloud and edge native messaging system"[1] is political like this discussion about controversial public policy. Clearly, and thankfully, there is a spectrum.
