I was cheekily implying that the well paid Facebook developers flagged this article as it forces them to confront the issue that their employer is generally a bad actor, and their employment contributes to that.

Hardly a new take but I think this being flagged so quickly is a concerning problem.



I'll confess to taking it personally; apparently I still need to work on that!

Don't know if you saw my other post about this, but the flagging behavior looked normal to me. I didn't see any patterns in the flagging history of those users, such as flagging posts about FB or some political position.


> the flagging behavior looked normal to me

I believe it, I think it's clear tensions are high on these topics.

I appreciate what you do to keep us all in check so please forgive any offense my teasing caused.


Nothing to forgive, but thanks for the kind reply.
