Because a) everyone with half a brain should absolutely have known, or strongly suspected, it was fake, for multiple reasons, and b) people rightly started saying "fake/bs" shortly after it was posted.
So how several hundred "based pedes" then came afterwards and essentially said "Oh, I like this", rather than "Get out, garbage peddler" was rather concerning, seeing this ostensibly truth-seeking community ready swallow the most obvious lies if only they were convenient and appealing.

That would be great. Although this forum obviously inherits its structure and functionality from the larger .win platform, and I believe, originally, from reddit. So as many functionality tweaks as could/should be made... they very likely won't.
My best recommendation is for people to turn off "Community Styling", so they can downtoot garbage posts.
