Some posts with political overlap are on-topic for HN. Exactly how we handle that is a complex question, but also one that has been well-worked-out over the years. Here are some detailed explanations:

The current post was obviously submitted because https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27638871 got flagged. I'm currently trying to decide whether to restore the earlier submission instead of this one, which is what we'd normally do, or whether that thread is unsalvageable. Not clear. Edit: that thread looks pretty unsalvageable.

Thank you (again), dang. I really appreciate your work.
