[–]ExplainsRemovals 32 ポイント33 ポイント  (11子コメント)

The deleted submission has been flagged with the flair (R.4) Politics.

As an additional hint, the top comment says the following:

Oh my god. One account in the article:

The use of the insertion of the 6-inch dowel into the canal of one of my detainee's ears, and the tapping through the brain until dead. The starvation to death (in a cage), of a Vietnamese woman who was suspected of being part of the local political education cadre in one of the local villages ... The use of electronic gear such as sealed [sic?] telephones attached to ... both the women's vaginas and men's testicles [to] shock them into submission.[18]

This might give you a hint why the mods of /r/todayilearned decided to remove the link in question.

It could also be completely unrelated or unhelpful in which case I apologize. I'm still learning.

TIL That between 1965 and 1972

Politics huh, I see politics all the time on TIL, what does rule # 4 say:

Nothing related to recent politics

Huh!?!?, so does recent mean within the last 50 years.

uhh, you want to be more specific? You're doing a search for reagan, a guy who has been dead for longer than our recent politics limitation. I don't recall his zombie being involved in politics in the past 8 years either, so whaaaats your point?

Edit: And there it is, as expected. Downvotes for pointing out that this guys point is completely illogical and makes no sense. Why? Because it's not convenient to the narrative. I can't imagine why we wouldn't want politics on TIL, clearly you all are so reasonable about it.

It's called hypocrisy. You took down a post with information from over 40+ years ago but Reagan is more recent than that and it stays. Should I assume you're the mod responsible for this?

You might want to Google around for Republicans using his corpse as a rhetorical prop. From your own fucking FAQ:

Anything Bill Clinton because he continues to be a highly publicly visible political figure -- campaigning for Obama, etc.

Reagan is still very much a highly visible figure with Republicans. He just happens to be a dead one.
