I personally don't see the benefit of either down voting or flagging. Flagging in particular, more often than not, seems to denote: "This post is not sufficiently ingratiating to my political convictions".

Yeah it SEEMS like a minority of flags can over power votes and comments. Meaning the "I don't want people to talk about that" type "vote" is over represented. That's not something that should be that strong.
IMO flags should be reserved for spam, bad data, fundamentally untruthful content, but that's clearly not how they're being used.
