    Worst subreddit filled with the worst kind of Reddit user; the self assured know it all who knows absolutely nothing and just makes stuff up

      It's moderated aggressively by actual historians.

      I'm guessing you think historians themselves are pawns of a conspiracy, though.

        They cite pseudo history and the claim that actual historians moderate it is laughable. Guarenteed it is moderated by teenagers with a passing intrest in history

          This has been my experience. I have known a lot of actual professional historians and they tend to be super nice people. Mods in that place are far too edgy and absolutist to be real historians.

          Several of the users make their IRL identity publicly known. I don't know if any of the mods do (that would be brave), but I don't think they'd be reeling in content from tenured academics for a decade if it was all a sham.
