Bottom point:
HN is full of smart and influential individuals, but its' self-regulation mechanisms prevent it from being the ultimate place on the Web to discover and discuss bleeding-edge content. Some topics are clearly not welcome here, even if they are tech- or science-related.
Personal example:
In the last month three of my submissions were flagged without any explanation:
- Interview with John Ioannidis on Covid-19 death rate
- James Corbett's in-depth investigation into Bill Gates and Bill & Melinda Gates' Foundation (two different links; the second link submitted an hour after the first one; both flagged)
