These comments aren't appearing because they have been removed. r/AskHistorians is a heavily moderated subreddit. We require answers to be in-depth and comprehensive, showing an understanding of modern scholarship and/or primary sources on the subject. Anything that does not meet these standards, or isn't an answer to the question or a follow-up question, is removed.
What you got in this thread was one post providing nothing but an anecdote and a Wikipedia link, and another criticising your question. These are things we consider unhelpful; if you would like to read such responses, we recommend posting your question on a more casual sub like r/history.
