If the US is such a threat to freedom, why do we have soooo much of it here???

I saw some comments on HackerNews where a bunch of Musk worshipping chuds were claiming to have "conclusively" showed the election had been rigged. They created a model and formulas specifically used to support this conclusion. It required some serious cognitive dissonance. Like first assume they cheated, then assume because there was no supporting evidence they must have used a rounding technique to hide missing votes, and finally "how could it possibly be so close must be fake lets throw out parts that dont fit the model".

"Excuse me, this isn't pulled from our asses, it's pulled from the model of our asses"
Hacker news is probably the highest concentration of dickheads on the internet. Smug levels through the roof. Every one of them thinks they are richer and therefore cleverer than you and they are going to spend 8 paragraphs telling you about it.
I try to only read the comments on niche technical posts which I find interesting. The rest of the sites comments are grating. It's got more bootlicker comments than reddit. They will parade the most extreme edge cases out as excuses for not implementing any moderately progressive policy then bitch about bikeshedding. I also hate how so many comment threads will devolve into a trivial bash syntax argument. Fuck me, the Bash shit really is fucking annoying. Just try to suggest a Bash one-liner to fix a persons issue and you will blow the site up.
