Predicting the success of comments is way easier. Just lean left-wing for positive points and right-wing for negative points. I have been testing this myself for a while.
- throwaway2016a 9y agoLibertarian economic policy is typically right wing and it will very often get upvoted. Libertarian social policy is left wing and will typically get upvoted. I'd say if you want a better than random chance to have positive upvotes lean Libertarian not left. Except when the Libertarian view is left in which case you are doing both. Also, please don't bring politics into a non-political story.
