> “My minority opinion isn’t shared by the users on a subreddit… must be astroturfing…”

Or you know... maybe people just disagree with you



I hope I can comment on the above without taking a side in the current Israeli/Palestinian conflict:

Reddit seems to, on average, take a pro-Palestinian stance (they are practically jumping out of their seats over what is happening at Columbia), but for some reason /r/worldnews has a heavy, heavy Zionist slant.

Many people see Reddit as truth, and so it concerns me that either of these positions are accepted as the best course forward.


Na it's just this one sub because clearly it's being heavily manipulated, my "minority opinion" is shared in almost all the other ones. When only articles from israel-based news sources get upvoted then you know bots are doing most of the work. Go spend a few minutes looking at the posts related to the war and you'll end up at the same conclusion, you don't need to be a genius to see it.


Wild that you're being downvoted for speaking a plain truth. Worldnews is a full-on hatesub. They're rabid and deranged.
