I've said this before and got downvoted for it.

But if companies allow extremists on their platforms then the moderates will leave. It's not so much a paradox but a cause and effect.

Liberal by definition is anti-racist. A major tenet of liberalism is egalitarianism and it's what allows free market capitalism.

Maybe you should go educate yourself about what Liberalism is before appointing yourself the racism police on Hackernews.

I'm a liberal and I've said I prefer not having more racists in California with illiberal sentiment. That is the opposite of racist.

There is a long history of America enforcing white racial integrity which you seem to be naive to. As a native Californian I think it's fair to be weary.

I stand by not wanting more transplants in my state and it's not just me.

Welcome to American politics.

I hate racists too which is why I prefer not having them in my state.

Why do you think there are so many posts about people wanting to leave California?

Do you think it's really all about taxes? It's not.

The prevailing rhetoric of California being "bad" is mostly political and has racist anti-liberal roots.

By shutting down counter views you're allowing those racist viewpoints to prosper.

And by the way, none of your rhetoric counters what is historical fact.

The plurality of California are not Hispanic by pure accident.

Lastly, it should be possible to have a rational discussion about demographics on this site without people over reacting and name calling.

settled != colonized

California indigenous who settled and mestizos who colonized share the same haplogroup d dna.

They are the same people.

And for what it's worth the massive anglo/white immigration into California has been tantamount to ethnic replacement - not just in California but all over this continent.

So excuse me if I don't cry a river over fewer transplants.

> conquistadors

This is the type of ignorance I'm talking about.

The first people to colonize California were mestizo and mulato - generations after the conquistadores in Mexico.

Yes. It's so bad.

It's really disheartening to see the complete lack of decency from some people here.

I'd love some NAS hardware that is low power and can run a few Docker containers.

_You_ go to Idaho and Wyoming.

California is our state.
