In my opinion, the quality of content on HN has plummeted since SOPA became an internet issue.

It is reminiscent of how the Digg community stopped caring about interesting stories and instead became wrapped up in its own cycles of bullshit, RIAA, Blu-Ray, iPhone, etc.

Although the SOPA submissions may be a little excessive, they directly relate to the hacker community. SOPA is an important issue that deserves attention. Plus, the popularity on HN is having a real effect on the issue. For example, Go Daddy has lost thousands of domains, and has since retracted their support of SOPA.
