> Don't know why this is getting downvoted

Paul Graham and Garry Tan were both big cheerleaders of DOGE, so, keep that in mind.

A shocking number of the biggest stories about DOGE over the past year were flagged here, probably including the stories about goons physically removing people.

Posts questioning this suppression/censorship were flagged.

Some people like to argue that since any story about Musk becomes toxic - for some reason - it 'makes sense' to flag every story about anything to with him. You know, like Israel, or US torture, or Assange, or Snowden, or Epstein, etc.

For we are but naive children here in the tech industry, and must have a safe space to discuss PCB specs and the meaning of 42 without too much 'current affairs', lest the site 'lose its focus'.

It's not like almost the entire top of the industry is neck-deep in collaboration with all this or anything, right?

... Anyway, if people here don't know much about DOGE, the massive flagging that's gone on here is probably a big factor as to why.
