Arguably, the title on that submission is inflammatory:

"People in 150 cities globally standing up to authoritarian controls on freedoms"

This is a a mainstream source reporting on an interesting new phenomenon, and flagging is probably mostly ideological. You could argue it will probably cause a flamewar, however.

EDIT: Sorry, just realized that the previous submission was not from the same source. Please mentally add a strikethrough to the first paragraph.

EDIT 2: Ok, I found a way to do the strikethrough with Unicode, it kinda looks ugly though.
