I agree, but when that is abused because of a minorities' preference, then it's bad.

That's what's happening here.

I think we need to get specific -- what preferences are you referring to, and who is the minority?

EcommerceFlow mentioned opinions that are "very normal nationally." I don't want to assume the worst so I'm trying not to read in to that.

I mean, I don’t generally like to go over somebody’s posting history because it feels like stupid very-online silliness, but they brought it up.

I see some unflagged center-right political opinions sometimes. It is stuff that a mainstream democrat would probably disagree with but find, like, not odious or offensive. Therefore I think they are just getting flagged because any political opinions here have a chance of getting flagged. This is how the website is supposed to work, if we as a community decided that mainstream political opinions were ok, the site would become a place to argue about what exactly is considered mainstream.
