Seriously, notice how there is no outrage over the posting of Vox articles, which is documented to be bias towards the left side of the political spectrum, but when someone posts something from a right leaning website, it gets flagged almost immediately.
- YeGoblynQueenne 6y agoIf it helps, I've had many submitted articles flagged within a few minutes from posting them, the majority of them on debates regarding gender and neuroscience. My conclusion at the time was that they were being flagged by users who felt the articles pushed a certain liberal agenda (though that was not my intention). Despite that, I didn't conclude HN users in general have a certain political affiliation. Note that it only takes a few users to flag and bury an article and other users can do little to salvage a sufficiently flagged article.
