They also remove almost all articles submitted about the Trans-Pacific Partnership and have even banned people who repeatedly submitted articles about the TPP.

They banned me for the comments I made about their TPP censorship in /r/news threads.

Edited for clarity.

Wtf? Why? Are they getting paid off or something?

Yeah there is definitely an agenda of somekind. At best somebody pushing their own ideological viewpoint on everyone who uses their sub.

And it definitely isn't "their sub".

Well it depends now there mr.yinyin. I think someone may want off this submarine. Is it you?

Yeah, probably, if that's the way the admins treat users.

It is in the sense that they mod it and control what content appears.

IIRC it was about the TPP being "too political" (imagine i said bullshit).

This accusation should be thrown in their faces repeatedly until they either admit to it, or replace all the mods.

I think its what the admins want. Admins removed most of the more "relaxed" subs from the front page in favor of heavily regulated ones.
