So weird to see this post buried even though it was submitted 28 times in the last couple of hours. Is this considered too controversial or contentious?

- the_economist 6y agoI was wondering the same thing.
- 4cao 6y ago> it was submitted 28 times in the last couple of hours 28 times? I only see it was submitted once, 3 hours ago (and the original article was apparently published only 4 hours ago)
- nullc 6y agoSince it's hidden I believe the only way it get upvoted is when another person submits it. [I also submitted it, FWIW]
- 4cao 6y agoInteresting. Can you see the story that you submitted yourself? When I look at your list of submitted stories, the last entry there is from 3 months ago. I also see some of your submissions, including those with only 1 point. Now, I only ever submitted a couple of stories myself, but as far as I recall they start at 1 point by default, and can only be upvoted, so this is the lowest possible value. I can also see other "[flagged]", "[dupe]" and "[dead]" stories from the past couple of hours in the "newest" feed. When I click on another account's story that was "[flagged]" and is "[dead]," I can still see it listed under that account's submissions. For the record, I doubt any such story would be buried here intentionally. Perhaps there is some other automated mechanism to remove duplicates if the linked URL matches exactly.

- blago 6y agoI also submitted it and I was not the first one
- minikites 6y ago79 points and it's on page 5, an HN mod/admin must have deliberately buried this.
