I don't frequent r/politics but have seen post on other reddit subs that r/politics is getting less biased. The theory is the Obama EO for the $160,000,000 media propaganda campaign funds have been cut off. Not only is that the reason for Buzzfeed and Huffington Post layoffs but payment to the reddit shills have been cut off too.

Any truth to this theory?

Seems obvious without any report on it given the way the media is cutting and being completely outed as fake.

All I know about Reddit is the barstool sports sub is pretty far left. That surprised the shite out of me considering all the shitty leftist websites always running hit pieces on them.

It's the Huffington post on steroids. A waste of time.

reddit is biased, I'm honestly surprised /r/thedonald still exists.

they banned the Q sub, and you can still go on reddit and find hate group subs, it's absurd

I am by no means a regular reader but check it every blue moon to laugh at the reactions to any melt-inducing stories that are out (e.g., Northam). It still looked 100% prog filth to me the other day.

every subreddit is at the mercy of its moderators. r/politics is nothing more than a leftist circle jerk

Sports in general seem to turning very left wing. Our MSB had noticeably shifted to the left

As recently as last Friday r/politics had zero threads about the KKK governor in the top 50 or so. If you sorted by controversial there was one thread and it was filled with shills down voting facts into oblivion.

R/politics is as bad as it ever was.

If you doubt it go check out their front page right now, guarantee you that 100% of the threads are anti-Trump.
