It really is an indictment of this site that any mention of the genocide in Gaza is flagged almost instantly.
These are not typical sockpuppet accounts either, but mostly established users that (conjecture) don't care about having the same non-technical debate among non-experts devolve into flaming and namecalling.

The best thing you can do to foster discussion of topics like this is to keep the discussion civil and interesting.
Blaming the site itself is simply incorrect.
If it stays removed this is probably my last interaction on HN.
It's just blatant censorship. There's not even any real political message here. It's just a fucking memorial for the tens of thousands of children (and tens of thousands of adults) that were killed, that someone coded up.
Of course there is, it’s right there in the title of the website. Even making a website to remember these deaths and not other ones is a political choice.
What's political about the title?

Calling this a genocide is a political message. That doesn’t mean it’s not a valid message, but saying it’s not political is hypocritical.

This one never hit the homepage.
