I've noticed that most submissions involving anything that might invite the slightest criticism of Musk routinely get flagged. My conclusion has been that there's an army(or just a handful of people with too much time on their hands) of Elon fanboys patrolling the site, flagging stuff that causes them cognitive dissonance.
Doesn't even have to be political. I've seen it over and over with submissions about cybertruck recalls, twitter related stuff, etc.
