They removed the post about how Hilary’s campaign supported Trump and made up a rule on the spot about not being recent. The first rule they noted as an excuse states:
Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
which has nothing to do about being recent nor any other rules. They simply censor any valid critiques of certain politicians which is very dangerous, especially for a community that big.
I think I remember this post - wasn’t this like an eight year old article that you posted to the News channel?

You shouldn’t have political goals when moderating just to support certain politician. That is a conflict of interest and abusing the mod power to further a goal of your political candidate.
