Digg has been accused of being stricter on [[conservative]]s’ posting than other groups.  Digg has said that it treats all groups equally. In their defense, they have said that many of the individuals that were banned were publishing [[hate speech]] such as articles by the American Nazi Party and outright lies.

Starting at approximately [[January]] of 2007 a disproportionate number of postings about [[Ron Paul]] have been showing up on the site's home page.  This is due to fanatical support from Paul's base.  The number of articles has been steadily decreasing since [[April]] of 2007 as Ron Paul is failing to generate significant numbers at various Republican caucuses.

Digg started as tech news site, but during 2007 political section was added, which resulted in increase of politically-related articles and also attracted large amounts of far-left oriented [[liberal]] users, many of them being fanatical supporters of [[Barack Obama]]. Since then, digg has (along with far-left political sites such as Daily Kos and Huffington Post) become one of the Internet strongholds of anti-religious, [[anti-conservative]] and [[anti-American]] propaganda. [[Liberal hate speech]] is rarely sanctioned by digg's staff while accounts of some conservative or [[Republican_Party|Republican]] members were banned simply because they continuously expressed their opinion (which usually offended liberal fanatics to the point they started flame wars, often ending up in insults, mockings, or even death threats towards conservatives). During [[September]] of 2008, almost all political stories reaching digg's front page from its [http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/ U.S. Elections 2008] section were smears or lies about [[John McCain]] or [[Sarah Palin]].
