I can't seem to figure out if there is any bias here or not
Reddit's Front Page -

Surely, it's all just a fair rotation of subreddit suggestions

Those are ads based on your search history...

Also, Reddit is unapologetically anti trump. The owner of the site got into some shite recently for creating an algorithm that downvited pro trump posts.

Not hardly.

I've never searched ACLU in my life. The other seems to be a rotating subreddit.

Has Reddit ever claimed to be fair and balanced? Are they supposed to be?

It seems to be their sponsored ad right now. Reddit is ultra liberal.

I couldn't even hide the ad like I've been able to do with their other sponsored ads.

Close. It was the CEO of Reddit, and he was stealth editing pro-Trump posts.

The_donald is basically the same content as this board, before it makes it to this board. The good thing about Reddit is you can tailor it however you like.
