  It's off topic for HN: > Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

    This is real life not some made up rule book, people like you refer to when faced with things they don't like.

      Are you implying that was due to HN right wing bias? If so why is this the topic about Jimmy Kimmel not flagged when it is clearly left wing: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45282482 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45282482 In general all topics about politics gets flagged when they first appear since they are semi off topic. Then when enough people vouch for them they get unflagged, reports of big political events tend to get unflagged, but political opinion pieces or smaller events typically do not.
