"Amazing" isn't the word for it.

"Amazing" isn't the word for it.
This story is not. This story is boring drama. HN is not an advocacy platform.
> Agreed, I mean "incredible" and not in the good way. Someone needs to take this to Twitter / X or another platform that isn't insider controlled.
Please do. We don't want these kinds of stories (or comments) here.
Who are you to decide what "we" want?
You don't speak for me.
The evidence of whether this community wants to see a story and to talk about it consists of upvotes minus downvotes, comments, and flags.
If you read the parent comments, you'd see that them, and many others, are complaining about the thread getting flagged off the front page. Those flaggers are the "we". I am talking about "The evidence of whether this community wants to see a story".
Also, the guidelines literally say that these kinds of stories and comments are off-topic.
