With all the topics and people I follow I didn't realize this was going on until I saw this post.
I completely agree. A difference in opinion should not be a reason for a flag. We all need to keep our minds open to different possibilities and new information.
I also recently came across a conspiracy post that was flagged by a whale and it did indeed seem like censorship. It was a well written article that presented many facts it was just the conclusion that was disagreed with. When this happens the community needs to rally for the cause. Which I am glad seems like the case here. -Matthew
Edit: I had a hunch and after a bit of digging it turns out to be the same flagger. Not really sure what is going on with this account. But he is receiving a large delegation from a rather inactive account.
If you would feel comfortable naming names, it might help others of us steer clear of this person.
I think to not draw unwanted attention to this post I will refrain from naming anyone.
Here is the post I mentioned though. It should be easy enough to see who flagged it.
