I politely disagree with almost every combination of the words you just used :).
1. hackers could be interested in news other than tech, that’s the very identity of hacking: understanding things in this case, the world politics and conflicts.
2. even then, there are _always_ non-tech entries on HackerNews, de facto.
3. it’s not 4000 old issue (misleading oversimplification). In essence, it’s a century-old colonial project that is entirely inline with the 19th and 20th century European colonialism, with a supremacist idealogy at its core (ethnostate).
