I just flagged this. First time I ever flag something on HN. When I try to access it I get: "Sorry, you have been blocked. You are unable to access censor.net. This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks. The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data."

But I totally understand people who flag political articles. It turns HN into reddit. I actually wish I had the discipline not to click them, because I end up seeing the typical infuriating neo-lib HN comments and I can't help but reply.

What's wrong with wanting HN not to have politics and keep a tech/education focus? Every other social media on the Internet is packed to the brim with political content, we can go literally anywhere else if we want that. (And please don't answer "being apolitical is being political" or "oh, look at the privileged fatcat who can afford to be apolitical" that's just the sort of lib cliches that annoy me)
