Ask PG: Why did Politician Market Disappear from the homepage

The most likely explanation is that it was getting flagged by people who didn't like it.

Wouldn't that kill the submission, not bury it?

Killing takes more flags.

Probably too many people flagged it.

You should probably email directly rather than post. At least that's been the recommendation in the past.

I wouldn't be surprised if people were flagging it based on the tedious discussion in the comments, tbh.

Probably the government flagged it.

Maybe because it got flagged because this isn't anything really new
