Hackernews is just as censorious as twitter. Comments get flagged and moderated solely by the positions taken within and then system has the gall to then tell you to read the comment policies which you didn't violate as they are from the libertine age that preceded this one.
Controversial post rarely reach the front page anymore and if they do they are full of reasonable and true comments fading into gray and finally away. Meanwhile the most on the nose, vile and hateful propaganda get's voted to the top with rarely anyone speaking against it.
I understand you do this for a good cause, because you think it will save lives or make society better. It won't.
There is an underlying reality with it's ground truth and that can only ever be glimpsed through the verbal sparring of ideas and ideologies.
To those truly concerned about "harmful misinformation", you should know that the greatest atrocities in human history were committed when one side, faction or ideology could dictated what everyone said and wrote.
This is not an accident.
The most harmful misinformation is that which no one is allowed to correct.
