A lot of discussion on HN is ideological in nature, it’s just that the context is often Vue or React, or if PHP is good now, or how does SPA:s work in some browsers, or should desktop apps using Electron exist…

Humanitarian/ethics contexted articles being flagged means that HN curiosity is being trampled on in a certain manner, doesn’t it?

It’s HN readers who do the flagging.

I don’t sense any reluctance, or lack of interest in humanitarian or ethical articles, but rather the idea that Israel v Palestine is the core issue of the century.

True I suppose. But shouldn’t that be an even greater reason not to flag them? Issues of such importance is quite the opposite of regular bikeshedding.
