There is a culture-fit that HN users must measure up to. If they don't, they are gone.

Just admit it: HN is a clique. An exclusive club of like-minded people. Outsiders and people who don't agree with you are out.

View on HN

I certainly wouldn't put it that way. But since you sound sure, I'll ask the same of you as the OP: please provide links to specific posts that convinced you of this view. From my point of view it's hard to imagine what those would look like. But perhaps I'm missing something important.

HN doesn't seem to me to consist of like-minded people. If it did, I wouldn't have to spend so much time asking users not to berate each other.

Hey, as long as people agree with you and don't stray outside the HN filter bubble, they'll be fine. I'm sure about that.
