Never seen HN turned against someone so vehemently, it's as if a group of bots was set lose to criticize a certain individual.


or just maybe, and i know its a crazy idea, a certain individual is objectively an awful person who has done great harm in the world and its subjective if its greater or lesser then the good (imho its far greater harms then any good done but i know that is my subjective view)

just because you disagree with a widespread view/opinion does not mean its bots


> done great harm in the world

Can someone enumerate the "great harm" that Elon is doing? I honestly don't see it.

It's been a long time coming with Elon Musk, and he has been criticized A LOT on Hacker News.

I would also argue he is not being singled out, here are some comments posted criticizing Steve Jobs:

It really shouldn't come as a surprise that notable people related to a company or project are brought up when an article about it appears on HN.
