Articles without references and fact checking seem to be obvious targets for getting flagged. Unfortunately innocent articles that provoke toxic comments seem to get flagged too. I really enjoy hacker news because of the quality of articles that make it in the list. However I do feel that the moderators and maybe some commenters have their own motives. This is a larger free speech issue and not a hackernews issue. There are increasingly less and less decent forums for meaningful discourse.
