The mods of /r/politics are continuing to use automod to shadow delete comments critical of editorial polices

The string of comments (backed up by the user in question) when I saw it from the account in question.

How it looks now when logged out.

This is what the commentator said

I just feel that it is content, rather than an announcement, and Erik is trying to push it without need to worry about the organic curation of content; a practice which opens the door to PR firms doing this shit and paying reddit for the privilege of being at the top. Not okay with me, but I'm just one person with an opinion.

Let's see if they censor our discussion thread we're having, that should tip their hand.

Seems he was right.

The reddit business model works by collecting fees from various groups who want a license to use their marketing whores here. Basically this whole site is a big fucking payola scheme for power to purchase the right to post their propaganda.

And I'm determined to expose it.

It's already exposed to any degree that is possible without looking at their accounting numbers, or reading the email correspondence.

They will try to extract payola from the wrong person and I will be there.

Sauce or STFU please.

One only needs the brain of a dumbass to understand that r/politics is nothing but propoganda...and it has been ever since I joined Reddit...Don't opporate under the illusion that you can save something great, when the idea that it's great is the battle you should be fighting.
