Not really surprising, this is just confirmation of what's been apparent for a while - Audience score is an accurate estimate of the movie, and the tomatometer (the critic score) basically just reflects the political correctness / marketing budget of the movie.

Probably because they have an axe to grind and can’t stop themselves from souring every discussion by turning it toward politics. I see this happening more and more on HN and I hate it because this is one of the places I like to go when I need a break from the constant culture war bullshit.

I find this comment somewhat humorous because it pretty well sums up the frustration with "politically correct" movies to begin with; that the writer/director has an axe to grind and can’t stop themselves from souring their movie/TV show by turning it toward politics, especially when people are looking towards media specifically for escape from the culture war.

Or to put it more clearly: the way you feel about ycombinator comments here is very similar to how some people feel about e.g. LOTR or any other piece of media they otherwise treasure. I should think you might empathize with their position more if your politics weren't so opposed.
