> Is HN now against western capitalism?

I think that's a (very) vocal minority.

Over my ~9 years reading HN daily, I'd say most of the HN community broadly accepts there is no perfect system, just different sets of trade offs, but that history has shown generally democratic systems based on enlightenment values (uniform rule of law, respect for individual civil & property rights, free markets, etc) usually net a better average outcome over the long-run - despite still being very far from perfect.

To paraphrase Winston Churchill, it's the worst system... except for all the others (which are even worse). :-)
