"I am British and care very little about the internal political arguments in the US concerning their health care system."
Amen Brother!
Political articles should be (imho) shut down very fast. The "flag and wait for a moderator" tactic doesn't seem to be working as well as it used to.
- biohacker42 17y agoI flagged it too, but I don't know if we have different moderators or if more people are voting politics up and that negates our flagging it. And by the way, the article is quite good, I just don't want it on HN.
- callahad 17y ago"The 'flag' and wait for a moderator doesn't seem to be working as well as it used to." How can we judge how well the system is working when we have no direct insight into it? Perhaps a moderator reviewed the post and found it to be of merit?
- plinkplonk 17y ago"Asserting that the system is not "working as well as it used to ..." I said "The "flag and wait for a moderator" tactic doesn't seem to be working as well as it used to." there is a subtle difference between what I said and what you claimed I said.
- callahad 17y agoMy response came off snarkier than I intended. I've edited it to hopefully de-snark the point I was trying to make.
- plinkplonk 17y agoNo harm done! My response doesn't make sense anymore now that you edited yours! :-) I am leaving it unedited however.
- jpwagner 17y agoMaybe it doesn't work as well because people are starting to overuse it...
