Orlando shooting discussion censored on Reddit
- philiphodgen 10y agoDiscussed (and flagged into oblivion) on HN at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11888870 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11888870
- personjerry 10y agoOh interesting. Any idea why it was flagged?
- philiphodgen 10y agoI think people flagged it as outside of "what is interesting to HN". My belief is that the shooting event itself should be flagged, but the knock-on impact of the event in the tech world (how do Reddit executives and mods behave?) is absolutely an important point of conversation here. It is just as important as the ongoing drumbeat of accusations of Facebook manipulation of the newsfeed against conservative topics.
