But as I understand you, it's left to the moderator's discretion to unflag topics.
Is there a checklist / criteria of judging whether the users can have a "reflective" or "reflexive" political discussion?
Would 9/11 not be covered because it would be too "reflexive"?
Why was this discussion of this "genocide" viewed as not too "reflexive"?
You have to see how it looks very one-sided. It would be nice for political discussion topic allowance details to be explained.
Currently it leaves a lot of assumptions as you point out.
