HN mods/leadership appear to have taken the stance that this is a non-political site.

Why it's being flagged? People hiding behind the non-political rule are suppressing information and discussion.

This site is owned by ycombinator, who have a motivation to "not rock the boat", so such suppression is ignored.

I guess in time we'll see whether that's a good decision for them or not.
