Why would you "routinely flag Twitter threads" if they are not obvious spam, dupes, or egregiously off-topic? You are not a guest curator. There is a reason you cannot downvote submissions on HN and the flag button is not a substitute for that.

If you don't like something, ignore it and move on. Someone else may find it interesting. It's not your duty to prevent the rest of the community from reading something you don't like.

It’s not a question of personal dislike. There are plenty of news articles, blog posts, etc. whose positions I think are nonsensical or wrongheaded yet clearly align with HN’s mission of intellectual curiosity. But with Twitter threads on nontechnical topics, in my experience, the intent and effect of posting them is to whip people up into a rage. This not particularly civil comments section is one of the better ones I’ve seen - the top comment as of when im posting this only has two angry exclamation points.
