They are using computer scripts (bots) to downvote and remove things from sites automatically. trying to remove it from public view quickly, so people will not stumble upon it.
Here you can read an article on who and how.
"Propaganda agents obviously aren't going to publicly brag about what they are doing, and you can bet that their use of downvote bots is much greater. Moreover, they probably have more sophisticated software than Greasemonkey.
As one example of a publicly-available downvote bot, this script automatically downvotes any stories on 9/11, Gaza, torture, Guantanamo and a host of other topics, downvotes certain posters, and engages in other forms of cyber warfare.
I call on programmers to figure out a way to fight this cyberwarfare propaganda."
