Why is a brand new account (yours) rushing to flagged threads with the party line? It looks like you registered just to post in this thread.

I _think_ it's satire?
What makes you think that? They have posted multiple times in this thread with basically the same post.
I think his edit? I read the edit as him pointing out that political posts get flagged on the front page. But it's obviously not flagged because of the rules, it's flagged because _someone_ is flagging this stuff. I say this because the first minutes of the post existence, it oscillated between flagged and un-flagged. Surely, we also triggered the comment activity trigger that auto-flags the post, some anti-flamewar measure.
Also, this phrase from him:
> This is an inconvenient perspective that some of the more well-funded and well-connected Hacker News readers would prefer to ignore.
