Sadly, HN regulars neither understand nor respect the concept of neocolonialism. The typical HN user seems in denial about the existence of the American Empire [0], and it's not obvious that American expats form a network of global influence, from operating PMCs [1] to OFCs [2], unless one either does the hard work of reading, or one gets linked directly to the relevant articles.
Additionally, HN is not built on very good software. On higher-quality fora, like Lobsters [3], hyperlinks can be embedded directly into paragraphs and do not disrupt the flow of text. HN is a backwards and primitive site in comparison.
Imagine if the regulars were willing to tackle ideas like the concept that the USA itself is a tax haven [4]! No way would people be able to talk about that. So we must take it slowly and carefully introduce folks to these ideas.
Edit: [5] just broke within the hour. Here's a story of an American expat engaging in bad conduct abroad. I didn't even have to go searching for this; it showed up on Imgur while I was trying to forget the fact that I am being downvoted, yet again, for being a leftist with facts.
Yes, because that didn't exist before. And what's with the wiki links to the commonly-understood terms? Condescending much?
