JamesColesPardon was removed as a mod in r/Conspiracy for removing "front page threads" without at least "3 votes". Current mod ShellOilNigeria admits that axolotl_peyotl just did that exact same thing when he removed a "front page thread" to protect Trump's image.

On the less comical side of things - this is an unfortunate example of a skeptic community being infiltrated and controlled by a large political party. Like conspiracy theorists are loonies no doubt, but in their purest form they are mostly harmless. After all, they reject all authority regardless of political affiliation, you wouldn't think they would ever end up being the mouthpiece of proto-fascists. Astroturfing's a bitch though, and now what was originally a "reject all authority, question everything" movement has become "bow down to our overlords, ignore hypocrisy and corruption, the establishment has your best interests in mind". It's really more sad than anything.
