The comments used to be so fun to read. There would often be hilarious comments about nonpolitical topics. But they killed that as part of the censorship campaign the tech world engaged in to stop Orange Man from being reelected. These days they choose whether to enable comments on an article by article basis and they usually only allow comments on topics the commies find non threatening. But every so often they'll enable commenting on a hot button topic as a test to see whether their efforts to curate acceptable opinions are working. The success is pretty mixed. Soy suckers are more common than they used to be but it's so artificial. If they keep it open too long the real userbase gets wind of it and floods the comment section with unapproved opinions, some of them shitting on Yahoo for the transparent game they're playing.
