  Articles that appear to be negative on Tesla or Elon Musk usually get flagged to oblivion.

    IME it seems to be primarily ones that are just absurdly biased. This story seems extremely relevant, and also sets the stage for an important question to be answered that could have implications even beyond self driving.

  Negative Tesla posts often get flagged immediately, probably by a bunch of dedicated Tesla fans/employees trying to surpress it.

    I'm a huge Tesla skeptic, but Tesla and Musk are lightning rods for tabloid-style garbage that doesn't belong on HN, so it doesn't surprise me that we often see negative Tesla content flagged to death. Meanwhile we also see plenty of content that hits the front page and stays there [0]. Do you have examples of professional, interesting Tesla content that got flagged?

  It hasn't been flagged (and I haven't). Elon bashing may be fun, it's rarely productive conversation. And when it isn't productive it should be flagged and often is.
