Not claiming to be good. But I will say most my white friends don't actually engage with this conversations, nor do they even have friends of color, so....whatever.
EDIT: BTW, I was only offering opinion to support what the OP was feeling and saying.
The prevailing HN demographic doesn’t want their assumptions on diversity and race questioned.
The opinions and views of minorities are only acceptable and elevated on HN when they support the existing views that maintain the status quo or revert to some inaccurate remembrance of a better past.
Compare the comments and upvotes of this post to any of those discussing experiences with racism or lack of diversity.
