Been there, done that. I've tried to stay informed but not outraged for the last 8 years and it didn't make a damn bit of difference. I got involved in local issues, I phone banked, I tried to put my money where it would do the most good.

I'm out. I'm hiding away and hoping nothing affects me personally, and if it does I'm not going to think there's anything I could have done about it.

We're not in control anymore. Not unless there are any tech billionaires lurking on HN, and they don't give a shit about us.

If I understand correctly, they are mostly busy taking over the country at the moment. No time for HN..
