/r/"science" post that's an obvious antitrump ad is somehow not only allowed to stay, but allowed to rise to the front page as the mods silence anyone calling out the post for not being science at all. What an absolute disgrace to the name "science."

If it had a larger data pool, listed who is assaulting who, and didn't have an obvious bias it'd make sense to be on there. Buuuuut, it's quite obvious that in this case it's biased bullshit.

Idk if you ever go on r/science but they remove comments all the time. Political or not. It's always been that way...

This is NOT for the same reason. That thread is an obvious Shareblue troll. Looks like the /science mods jumped on the gravy train. :(

I do know what you mean. They remove top level comments because they have strict rules on the fact that top level comments have to be high quality, scientific, professional comments from someone who knows what they're talking about. That's why I mentioned in my post that it was amazing they didn't delete the thread. It's not science. But it makes Trump look bad so they not only let it stay, but they removed any comments pointing out the utter hypocrisy of the whole thing. Anything to get in to that Trump bashing circlejerk.
