Because someone trying to defend their unreasonably hated interests is just soooooo fucking funny. I'm only here for this post. Sorry kid, but I don't get off on laughing at other's expense so I'm going to gtfo of this degenerate cesspool asap. People wanna get rid of furries. Well how about places like this instead? The world would be infinitely better without drama. This sub is like the young people version of watching the Hallmark channel.
Nothing of value was lost. Literally hundreds of hacky reddit humor. I thought it would be controversial or remotely interesting, but I really should have known better.
Science doesn't get enough criticism for being a left-wing circlejerk.
I remember when they had a megathread on Trump leaving the Paris Accord and a mod even wrote that they would be more lenient in removing non-scientific comments because of how big a deal it was and that they wanted to educate people on the importance of it.
I studied the failures of the Kyoto Protocol in uni and wrote a decently lengthed comment with sources dealing with the KPs failures and how the PA failed to address any of them. Of course it was removed because it went against 'the world is doomed because of Trump's decision' circlejerk.
The mods there are the least scientific people when it comes to going against their beliefs, which honestly could be said about a lot of the scientific community at universities, but that's a different story.
All that is required to get a mod position in r/science is a bachelors in a STEM discipline. Most people come out of a bachelors with zero research experience and few actual scientists would waste their time being a mod for an internet forum.
And the one's that are left are morons who think n = 66 is low for a hands on trial. For hands on 66 is a HUGE number. Dozens of papers get published every day in cognitive science/human computer interaction with only 8 - 10 participants, especially if those study's are being done on smaller disabled communities.

/r/science should just close their comment section permanently. It’s always 90% removed by moderator.

At least they have a lower removal rate than r/askhistorians

Who wouldve thought that rhetoric and science would be incompatible

And all that's left is a retarded discussion about how n=66 is a small sample size.
