I disagree. Some communities are actually much better than others on a variety of issues. I mistakenly thought that this was an issue HN would have been better and more mature on too, but I'm learning I was wrong about that.

But compare your average 8chan poster to your average HN poster and you'll see that for sure not all online communities are the same.

I don't even know how to argue on this. The average HN poster is definitely better than the average 8chan poster.

But that does not mean all HN posters are free of being hateful/discriminating against certain groups of people. Be it by accident or willfully.

I for sure never thought that all HN posters were free of hate/discrimination, I just thought they were better than we're seeing here. But I was proven wrong in that.
