Why was this flagged?
- RobertDeNiro 8mo agoThere are pro-Trump bots that automatically try to get things removed if they paint the administration in any negative light.
- ronsor 8mo agoThe real reason: > Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, [...]. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic. From the guidelines linked at the bottom of the page.
- ranger_danger 8mo agoThere many, many politics stories posted here that never get taken down.
- BoredPositron 8mo ago404 is auto flagged.
- slater 8mo agoIt's not.
- viraptor 8mo agoDang's response a while ago when I reported a dead 404media link: > The site 404media.co is banned on HN because it has been the source of too many low-quality posts and because many (most?) of their articles are behind a signup wall. So that's why that one was killed. I've unkilled it now. (I'd extremely disagree with the low-quality part)
- BoredPositron 8mo agoYou are right it's auto dead and needs vouches which in return reduces the flag threshold.
