Most articles in this website are somewhat anti-china and most are short.
I introduced a lot of people to HN, but they get turned off by these pro-West propaganda and leave. Such a turn off. I try to avoid news about China, Russia, India and anything from my beloved continent of Africa because I know comments will be mostly negative.
I am not a fan of echo chambers. I am forced to tolerate this echo chamber because of tech-related news. How I wish HN that can focus 100% on tech and related news. That was going to be awesome for people like me who don't like to be force-fed propaganda. Tech news is the only thing keeping me from quitting it altogether, but amount of propaganda being pushed to the front page will really push me to the edge.
I don't see a lot of negativity towards India on HN. Many people here are just anti-authoritarian, which hacker community has been from the beginning.
Ha! I would say it's mostly just pro-europe considering the amount of outrage porn there is against the big US tech companies, US government/culture on things like social safety nets, the US military and what not which is ironic considering this website is hosted by a US venture capital firm.
