Yesterday, after weeks of not signing into Hacker News due to antisemitism, I did so I can add my voice to the comments.
Today I log on and see an article claiming IDF soldiers are ordered to kill innocent Gazans trying to get food.
Whether or not the article is accurate, it's clearly anti-Israel in a way that's meant to dehumanize Israelis, and it's out of context because Hacker News doesn't post much about Israel at all, and never in a positive light.
This is what shifts it from being a neutral story (if true) to being antisemitic. It's on Hacker News not to inform but to enrage, inflame, and to make Israelis seem like monsters.
It's allowed, or encouraged by the site operators and moderators (Paul Graham, Daniel (dang) etc.) because of their own antisemitic biases - something I've pointed out to them before.
It's hateful and gross, and it's no coincidence it's on a Saturday (Shabbat) when many Jews are offline.
