Users with enough karma can flag things they don’t like.

  Yes, very unfortunate.

    That's an illusion; it only seems that way when you judge by specific prominent cases that you care about. Turning off flagging on HN would have the same effect as turning off the immune system in a human body, only faster.

      Didn't mean it wasn't useful, just that it has unfortunate side effects

      Horseshit and you know it. You must see by now, if you have any decency, that HN is a hellhole of idiots masquerading as experts and that anyone half-way intelligent outside of the software world would never stick around here.

    I don’t agree, it’s a necessary evil.
