Only the random speculation comment was flagged. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35450340 (and I think that was correct). The following ones about the narrative were not.

But... that comment hasn't been flagged? It just says "[flagged]".

Compare this one from the same thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35456831


Enable showdead on your profile to see what the comment looked like. There are two states of being flagged; one is [flagged], which will still show to everyone but look like the comment you linked, and the second is [flagged][dead], which results in the comment being removed entirely unless showdead is enabled. (A comment can also be [dead] for other reasons according to https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.)
