Subreddits called news that only shows news from a single perspective. Sure if users only upvote a single perspective that's fine but mods shouldn't remove things they don't like if it's news.
Headlines that don't match the article. That always ends in rage baiting.
This should absolutely be a rule on any news or politics community. It removes an entire category of bad faith and inflammatory posts.
I always found the Canada news subs, the only posters were the mods, and everything in there was their political spin on things, trying to push their agenda... I guess what I'm saying is instances shouldn't be allowed to be an echo chamber for the mods
