Crude but this should work
# journalctl -b -l -o short-monotonic | grep -i "tainted"

That should get you more than one line. What's probably happening is
there's an early "Not Tainted" line which is the one to file as a bug.
And then any oops that happens after that is always considered tainted
because of the first one. If the first oops (for a boot) is tainted,
then there's a letter code that indicates why, but Fedora kernels
don't ever do this on their own, but if they did that itself would be
a bug.
