While we are quoting guidelines, i would argue the whole story should be flagged.

>"Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic."

Do either of these organizations get featured in the Guardian?


The great thing is: no one has to care what you're tired of. Your hurt feelings aren't more important than the dismantling of systems of oppression.
