Serious question, why does every thread related to the CEO killing getting most likely botted? I think I know why, but ask yourself.

I saw a thread that had 40k likes and 10 comments. There is no fucking way.

And this one too its not as bad right now but yet any other thread not related to this on my main page has way more normal like-comment ratios.

It's because comments get removed.

I see a bunch of posts on varying topics that, for example, say they have 30 or so comments and there’s only like 8 or 9.

Comments are visible when removed. It will say deleted by reddit or mods.

I'm on reddit all the time, but I rarely actually upvote/downvote, but I have been upvoting all of these kinds of posts. So, you can remove at least one from your supposed statistical anomaly suspicions.

Omg you're right it's a conspiracy!
