Fitting the typical stereotype of a villain company, the greed with no ethics isn’t surprising, what’s surprising that it’s backed by “hacker” news.. shouldn’t HN be backing the counter efforts against such company not the other way around?

Flock is a Y Combinator alumnus. It’s not backed by Hacker News, scare quotes or no.

Why is it surprising?

YC is a billionaire led organization whose founder has written openly about the virtue of discriminating against women and parents, and more recently has written bad faith responses to criticisms of billionaires.

This site is a Safe Space to promote those investments, regardless of societal impact.

edit: to be fair, pg walked back some of his pro-bigotry-against-parents shit once he became a parent. But that's the kind of sociopathic cunt who runs this place...

Are we living on the same planet? Almost i see on HN is hate and vitriol about flock.

Im genuinely perplexed how someone could come to this conclusion.
