Why is this flagged? @dang
- sitkack 2y agoAnyone with sufficient karma can flag and unflag. I did not flag this, and cannot unflag, but stories that are likely to turn into flamewars get flagged. I have also noticed that anything critical of Israel in anyway is also highly likely to get flagged.
- churchill 2y agoDitto on the point about Israel. I noticed the same: anything critical of Israel gets flagged right away. And I'm not surprised: they have a large IT ecosystem and have engaged in similar behavior before. Paul Graham complained about this [0] after it came out that Israeli VCs, tech entrepreneurs, etc. had groups for coordinating attacks on anyone questioning the Israeli narrative on social media. Like, they mentioned PG by name in their briefings. [0] https://x.com/paulg/status/1733146138226614465 https://x.com/paulg/status/1733146138226614465
