Here's a question for you: Do you believe HN has an obligation to allow anything to be posted here?

If someone wanted to post about how much they hate a certain race, do you believe the moderators here have an obligation to allow that post to remain?

If a majority of the population was using HN, then we’d be getting closer to an apples to apples comparison. The crux of the issue includes Google’s reach.

Does it matter if the majority is using it or not? The same concept of freedom of speech should matter. And HN is one of the largest tech forums on the internet; making it effectively the 'Youtube' of tech forums.

So given HN's expansive reach, why do you think it deserves to be excluded from the concept of being a provider? Why shouldn't it be forced to house all content?

HN has negligible reach compared to Youtube, Facebook, or Google.
