And no, there is absolutely no way that my second comment was flagged by multiple users within minutes. This thread was long dead by then, and this is on the second page.

If repeatedly removing the story of an infamous torturer who destroyed congressional evidence taking one of the most powerful technical positions in the country - against loud and polite protestations - is really not remembered by you then you have two big problems. 1, your humanity, and 2, you need more moderators here because clearly you are being stretched too thin. Ask PG for a bit more budget, for the sake of your soul and the people here creating this content.
