Am I reading this right? AskReddit has almost 97% of posts and comments deleted?!

It looked like 50-90% of those deletions were by the commenter themselves, but that is still a staggeringly high number. Also its possible that the 'user' deletion stat is bogus since reddit likely was the source of the info.

Does that surprise you? It doesn't surprise me. Often what they do is purge whole comment threads. Lets say you say "fuck niggers" and 20 people comment back "you racist ree" and then ten more people comment to them, often times they just get rid of the whole thing. So from one comment you get 31 deletions.

Also these are from the top 25 threads. So probably 90% bought threads and the moderators remove anything non-hivemind.
