Why is a Spectator article flagged?

  Because it's a dishonest article. This is better: https://www.politics.co.uk/comment-analysis/2019/04/25/scruton-is-part-of-an-intellectual-culture-giving-respectabi https://www.politics.co.uk/comment-analysis/2019/04/25/scrut...

    So the fact that Scruton is part of an "intellectual culture" we don't like and that might somehow be adjacent to views that are actually religiously intolerant, supremacist etc. (of which "it is literally, logically impossible for any follower of Religion X to assimilate into an open culture featuring broadly liberal values" is one, of course - that I find genuinely scary and that we should hope does not become the fashionable, contrarian position to hold!), should give us license to outright misrepresent what he thinks and remove every nuance in his position? That makes no sense. If anything, it makes very problematic views look more salient and supported than they actually are!
