In this instance at least flagging it took it off the front page and did so quickly! What was the readers reason for flagging it?

- SFjulie1 9y agoThere is a long history of censorship in HN. basic rules is everything that makes IT look bad or talk about corporate (toxic) culture tends to get flagged/removed. I tend to prefer to do my own judgement so I casually use http://hckrnews.com/ http://hckrnews.com/ to have the same news chronologically.
- jochung 9y agoYou're kidding, right? Threads about "toxic" (terrible word) IT culture only get flagged when the discussion turns against progressive orthodoxy. LambdaConf, Github's panel, Google memo... Only when HN is having none of it, and the social justice cliques look bad, do the flags go up.
- to3m 9y agoLikely to engender exactly the sort of boring meta discussion that you've managed to start :) (After a while you get attuned to the HN hive mind/group subconscious, and it's easy to tell which articles will induce this sort of thing.)
