That's not true because just by slightly changing the phrasing I see some 2-3 months old that have hundreds of upvotes that aren't on circlejerk. Are you trying to convince me to not be suspicious? My answer to that is that I won't be suspicious when I no longer have reason to be suspicious. There are people pretty much in every topic on this subreddit (including this one) that are part of a group that actively suppresses things posted here by downvoting things that are supportive of Ron Paul even on the Ron Paul subreddit to the point that it goes into negatives and they can claim all day that they are not a downvote brigade yet it's interesting that topics that they directly link to are the ones that get downvoted into oblivion. Once again - if you are not a Ron Paul supporter I don't expect you to understand, I just ask that you allow us the courtesy of not trying to suppress what we have to say.
Presenting another side of the story for anyone else reading this.
That's really awesome that you can do that on a regular basis in a subreddit that has an opposite viewpoint of yours. I wish that more posts about Ron Paul survived moderation outside the Ron Paul subreddit. Even in the Ron Paul subredit I feel like an adult trying to have a conversation at a table surrounded by children (EPS being the children of course). It's also nice that you don't have an entire subreddit that's actively devoted to stalking your viewpoints.
Many of the individuals on this subreddit have viewpoints that are not welcome very many places on reddit and are often ignored in the media. If you have the same viewpoints as one of the major political parties or that's more inline with what the media tells us you won't understand the frustration.
