Its honestly one of the biggest problems with this site. Some large post, 400 comments in, gets flagged cause of a few snowflakes got their feelings hurt.
And instead of the article just not being shown to them, their whim is forced on everybody.
And even if it is an incendiary news article, the discussions are usually still better than average. But no, a few whinys kill it for everyone.

correction: some guy got his wallet hurt.
It is clear to me that monied/political interests are on every platform, including this one.
Indeed, flagging should be disabled for any post with more than like 50 upvotes.
Then you'd see the opposite - you'd see brand new attack posts with 51 upvotes and no comments.
Sounds better than flagging a post people are interested in.
