It's hard not to notice a pattern here. Posts involving DOGE, Elon Musk, or critical takes on the erosion of legal norms in the U.S. are flagged within seconds.

Take this post, for example, flagged almost immediately: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43544534 https://youtu.be/6DsYAoIN3l8?t=65

It tells the story of a Maryland father wrongly imprisoned in El Salvador due to an "administrative error." The U.S. government admitted fault in court, yet refuses to take corrective action. Silence follows.

Meanwhile, a post discussing Marine Le Pen...A MAGA adjacent figure remains untouched. Funny how moderation seems oddly selective when certain narratives are involved.

And Dang will basically call you a conspiracy theorist if you even suggest that something untoward is happening despite the mountains of evidence.
