- whbk 10y agoyeah, sad.
- alva 10y agoDefinitely HN news worthy regardless of political leaning. These being constantly flagged chips away at the trust I have in HN
- whatok 10y agoLooks like the FBI statement I posted got unflagged. Definitely disappointed in the flaggers who more than likely did not read it at all.
- Veratyr 10y agoIt may be because there are multiple posts. The first may have been flagged by people who didn't want to see the story, the later posts may have been flagged by both those who didn't want to see the story and those who didn't want duplicates of the same news (I'm in the latter bucket).
- whatok 10y agoAll of the threads were flagged fairly soon after they were initially posted.
