I don't follow r/Askhistorians but is it really the case that factually incorrect comments are heavily upvoted with no dissenting one in sight ? I am not suggesting it's rare but I would like to see some examples as in subreddits I follow it's rarely the case (at least on things I am able judge myself).
- jlarocco 13y agoI don't know about /r/Askhistorians, but I saw it happen all the time in other subreddits, when I still visited reddit. The best is pointing out that something is wrong and getting voted down for it.
