@mutageno Even if it is fake, we already know there is fuckery about when it comes to Reddit. Correct the Record buying r/politics in 2016 (which made it go anti-Hillary/pro-Bernie to full on Hillary shilling) to some high profile names being in charge of more "popular" subs.

I also suspect many of the numbers are fake in some way or another, as it creates the illusion of certain ideas and ideologies being popular. Maybe the mechanisms are not the same, but something shady is happening.
