I come here to read about tech, not indulge in virtue-signaling identity politics. There's far too much of that on the Internet as it is.


Being anti-Russian is "identity politics" and "virtue signaling" now? When did geopolitics get roped in with "woke"?


"woke" is only one of the recent and prominent examples of it. I'm opposed to the war too, but there's no need to antagonise the helpless visitors of a technical blog for the actions of a government they didn't choose.


Ah yes, the helpless "good German"


anti-Russian like anti-Putin and his band of murderers or anti-Russian as nationality? If it is the latest then it is disgusting.

If you're complaining about finding politics "here" (i.e. on Hacker News), you should complain to the person posting the article, not to Ken Shirriff. Ken Shirriff can't control what you're presented here.
