This is a better blurb https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44498576, your new one is a set of instructions. I think it just needs to be a little clearer, you're on the right track with the second post to focus on something more concrete but it's better to show your whole thing instead of some subthing of the thing.

You should mail questions like this to the moderators at [email protected]

The mishap is not the chatbot accidentally getting too extreme and at odds with 'Elon's centrist stuff'. The mishap is the chatbot is too obvious and inept about Musk's intent.

That's a very good reason not to reach for dehumanizing tropes like 'vile scum' on HN or really anywhere else.

You can mail such questions to [email protected] or search dang's comments for the years of explainers of the things that happen with posts of that nature.

A US presidential candidate got shot and people flagged that. How would one even assess this 'rigor' without considering the things that never made it to begin with.
There was also at least one giant thread about the Grok South Africa thing.

Right, because otherwise you end up with a split discussion and people miss stuff, moderators end up having to merge them, etc. Immediate followups count as dupes (in HN's weird dupery algebra), they're better off linked in the active thread.

It's neither clickbait nor misleading, just a spider.

You just had a big Show HN https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44394051 so you probably want to give this a few weeks for the hivemind caches to clear (even though it's a different thing) and repost it then.
