In two of these posts, people might take issue with some of the sources. The rest should all be considered trustworthy by anyone. All flagged:
Posts flagged for showing how politics has meddled in science (unfortunately one of those facts was overstated, as a commenter kindly alerted me to. Including the correction did not prevent flagging):

Correcting a misleading statement in an article, flagged: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44932696

and some of those comments are just incorrect (like the last one about Loomer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_of_German_National... )
