seems like an uptick since 2020. might be part of the larger angst people have been feeling about society during the pandemic (a trend which I personally feel has degraded the experience on here)
A "negative vibe man" comment. A quick scroll through your comments shows lots of commenting on topics involving economics and politics. Offhand it would be easy to ascribe a "slant" to them. This is in bad faith. Please don't slander a story posted presumably in good faith.
You have multiple comments discussing economics, politics of technology, and politics generally. Just look.. they are there.
You are insinuating that this story about politics and economics should not be treated in good faith because the poster is tainted in some way via linking to their comment history. Your post on the other poster's comments seems in bad faith imo. Plus, I find "negative vibe man" comments are not ideal.

you really don't you see the irony here?

well the mods seemed to downweight the story, then the community flagged it (killing it all together)
it seems if anyone's out of place here it's you, not me
You contradicted your own terms of debate trying to taint a commenter as "political" while having a history of commenting on similar items. I pointed that out as not consistent using your comments as evidence. Mildly ironic but no.

Negative vibe on isle five officer!! The very idea that technology is not adjacent to economics, politics, and demographics is silly. If the forum mods don't think that then boo!
maybe time to find another website to post your vaulted insights on then
P.S. how is this a vaulted idea or not relevant to "tech"? We are discussing a country that swims in its own pooh because the government (de-facto) controlled companies turned off or removed sensors at the beaches, misreported data, and couldn't buy chemicals at adequate levels because of Brexit. Seems like almost ALL of the issues described in the post are at the nexus of economics/politics and technology.
Seems like they are annoyed that the Conservatives can't meet the minimun standard requirements for governing a country. Seems accurate on many levels.

poster seems to have... an attachment to posting UK political stories of a particular slant

I've never submitted a political story
commenting on others that have seems fair enough
this seems way out of line (and deeply ironic)
maybe you can point out where I slandered something?

You will continue to intermittently post about politics and economics on here which judging by your comment history you do. I will also. Goodbye.

You can always email dang (bottom of the page) if you suspect someone is using HN for ideological battle.
thanks.
At first glance I thought you were the person who submitted the article and thanking OP for noticing your UK slant.

from the guidelines at the bottom of the page:
a more on-topic place consisting almost entirely of doom-and-gloom stories about the UK would be /r/unitedkingdom
Its economics and politics, a quick scroll through your comments shows lots of commenting on topics involving economics and politics.
People who dismiss different opinions via implication of some kind of "negative vibe man" are not worthy of debate.. sorry.
