A content editor on Reddits science forum wrote Monday that the site has banned climate-change skeptics, and asks why more news outlets havent done the same.
About a year ago, we moderators became increasingly stringent with deniers, Reddit content editor Nathan Allen wrote in grist. When a potentially controversial submission was posted, a warning would be issued stating the rules for comments (most importantly that your comment isnt a conspiracy theory) and advising that further violations of the rules could result in the commenter being banned from the forum.
Allen explains that climate change became an ironically heated topic among commenters on Reddits science forum, /r/science, which he described as a window into the Ivory Tower for non-scientists to connect with experts like himself.

*PING* for your global warming list.
Not familiar with reddit.
Part of the regime, or independent progressives?
What they have done is to convert a science discussion into a religious one.
Yeah...Who is “Reddit”????
Besides, “global warming” IS a conspiracy theory itself.....
Reddit: Leftist mouthpiece.
I just cancelled Reddit.. Now we’re even.. Next.. :)
Exactly.
Its why Einstein presented his theories then basically stepped aside to allow others to prove or disprove them.
Here are the liberals' gifts to us:
Why not instead ban anyone claiming global warming is real?
There has never been:
1. Provable chain of custody of data from sensors to reports.
2. Provable calibration of each and every sensor to lab standards from which numbers are derived.
It’s time for decent, traditional values Americans to stand up to the PC/diversity (so long as you AGREE WITH US)/tolerance (IF YOU DON’T TOLERATE OUR WARPED VALUES AND OUR EFFORTS TO TURN THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN WE WILL DESTROY YOU) HYPOCRITES and tell them that the resistance has finally begun!
1. Most ALL of the so-called "greenhouse gas" is WATER VAPOR! Unless someone has found a way to stop evaporation from the oceans, lakes, rivers and streams, the TRANSPIRATION from trees and other plants, that situation will be with us...all together now...FOREVER.
2. By photosynthesis, plants take in CO2 and give back the O2 humans and animals REQUIRE for life. Reduce CO2 and plants perish. Increased CO2 = more plant life, ergo MORE O2! It's a rather stable balance.
3. One MAJOR volcanic eruption spews more vapor and other "greenhouse gases" into the atmosphere than MAN HAS PRODUCED SINCE MAN HAS BEEN ON THE PLANET! I have yet to hear a serious legislative proposal BANNING VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS!!!
(I suggest these frantic "greenies" gather at the upper rim of the next major volcanic outbreak to study the "problem" up close and personal. Now THAT would solve many of our problems!)
There's a lot more but I think you get the idea!
If you want to understand how that works, reread "1984" by Orwell. It's all laid out there.
No, the major element controlling our climates is the SUN. "Global warming", "climate change" or whateverthehell new name these idiots and grant money whores come up with is how THEY seek to CONTROL ALL OF US!!
I’m sure you’ve noticed, but the claim that “this year is the warmest on record” is always based on temperatures claimed to have been recorded in some remote corner of the world where independent data is unavailable.
Since this thread isn’t locked (yet), I’ll state this again here:
I think all Freepers should go sign up for Reddit and make a point to log at least one comment a day.
I’m finding the thought of Reddit mods pulling their hair out to fulfill their censorship very, very amusing today.
Reddit learned a lot from Goebbels, Stalin and the North Korean leader Kim BozoDung (or whatever his name is).
Mostly libs but surprisingly quite a few of us mean conservatives.
