      I understand; I don't mean to criticize the flagging system or moderation team. I just wanted to nod at the fact that we can't talk about this.

        It's ok to talk about it! we answer questions about things like flagging all the time.

        I mean the content of the flagged submission, which is morally unfashionable.
