I don't closely follow which articles are flagged, but I think that articles with a tech angle or some novel statistical or scientific analysis are favored over general politics. The reason I flag general political articles (eg articles about race or gender issues without any of the above) is that I don't find the discussions interesting, and I think that the posters are coming from a viewpoint of "this stuff is important so it should be discussed everywhere, whether people want to or not"
