It’s absolutely shocking to observe how hostile HN is to Chinese affairs. While in real life many must have collaborated A LOT with Chinese engineers & managers. Are you worry about bias bleeding into real life? I’m indeed worried as a Chinese immigrant working in tech

It's mostly because of the government. Don't take it personally. I have quite strong opinions of China, but I don't let it influence my relationships with my chinese collegues.
Is simply xenophobia, as it is with Russians or Russia-related issues. This is how the internet works in the Western world. When you point it out, they simply downvote you; if your account is new, they will claim it is a bot or that you are an agent/collaborator, and so on.
