brown = other (reddit-tier thread/move/derailed/non-original OP)why is https://www.econjobrumors.com/topic/eating-that-bat-was-the-largest-negative-externality-in-consumption-ever-seen still not deleted after 5 days in and being brought up ITT?
Seriously make a virus sticky and just nuke all other threads

Dangerous thread with OP calling for people to acquire hydroxychloroquine en masse, which will cause enormous issues for medical trials, research, and emergency scenarios. There's trolling, but this is too far.

Can you delete this thread, I think one of the links has a virus:
https://www.econjobrumors.com/topic/china-is-hiding-death-and-sending-fake-test-kit-to-europe?replies=7#post-5477207Kirk, this complaint is from a CCP troll desperate to stop people reading links. These shameless li ars will stop at nothing.

Reposting here in case you missed it:
While we may jeer and sneer at econ Twitter, the economic debate there seems to be on point and ongoing in the midst of the current crisis.
EJMR however is overflowing with repugnant racist slurs and unending ill educated quarrels about current affairs and politics. Meanwhile, economic or rather any academic content is lacking.
For all I know, Kirk is all but invested in maintaining the status quo to make a quick buck out of extra traffic.
EJMR is not a nice place to be at right now, and this is coming from an old timer.
Sad state of affairs!

This a thousand times!

There has been a shift in the modding. It used to be I would report racist threads, they would quickly be deleted, and then they would be auto-deleted when I reported them for a while. But those mod(s) seem to have left and now they stay up for days. Same with the third rate politics trash.
Worst the site has ever been. Shut it down if you can't do better Kirk.
2020 is the year the trolls finally won and turned EJMR into 4chan

Also it's not like the mods are neutral, there exists clear double standards in their censorship process.

Yeah racism doesn’t count for them if it’s against Chinese
