What specifically is the issue? The contest mode thing?
I looked up the thread, and some comments suggest brigading happened. If true, I suppose contest mode could counter some outside influence on the discussion.

More brigading than usual, anyways. The average upvote rate on r/conservative is like 75%, and barely breaks 60% if it gets over 1k votes. The "flaired users" thing was supposed to mitigate it, but it doesn't stop leftists from voting on everything - which itself is not supposed to impact vote totals, unless either Reddit made an exemption in the brigade protection for r/conservative, or leftists are subbed solely to downvote everything (or most likely both).
r/con gets brigaded constantly, they had to implement a ton of measures to keep the rabid swarm of leftoids from shitting on every single conservative issue that the users who are foolish enough to still be on reddit have to fight tooth and nail to just say without it having 10,000 downdoots.
