If you're Robert Reich, you can! You can make up anything, and someone will submit it to HN to waste everyone's time!

Yeah, screw Robert Reich! Always looking out for the workers who make up the majority of this country. Why won't he look out for the poor multi-national corporations, who have no one to advocate for them or their tax rates?

Hey, he can advocate for whatever causes he likes. I just think honesty makes a more compelling argument than lies.

How is spreading misinformation looking out for the workers?

I thought there were systems designed to effectively negate users that submit too many misleading posts.

Your parent post isn’t suggesting it’s always the same user submitting, just that users submit a lot of posts from this person.

Can’t say I agree, though. I don’t recall ever having seen one of his posts on HN, and a cursory search suggests they’re not even upvoted that much. Highest I found was under 30 points. But my methodology is flawed, as I basically searched for the name.
