If this is being flagged, it's likely because it's against the submission guidelines. It's hard to see how this gratifies intellectual curiosity, and it's a political topic without an interesting new phenomenon.

Mass incarceration in concentration camps is not a political issue, it's a human rights issue.

I don't recall ever flagging a submission, if I have it's infrequent.

That personal attack aside, political submissions don't have a blanket ban, but it's reasonable to see why this one would get flagged without blaming paid state actors.
