[flagged]

AFAIU there's no such thing as a power-user flag. All flags are equal, and what activates flagging is crossing a threshold. Mods can unkill stories.

(There are also site-based penalties, much mainstream news has a modest penalty, and occasional other filters usually for highly-submitted topics.)

Don't blame PG; he's been out of managing HN for a while now, and he's been very vocal about his actual thoughts.

I'm not one to suffer people trying to stick their heads under the stand, but I that's unfair to PG personally – "perverted" is much better – I think he's calling out the truth to Musk on Twitter as we speak.
