got permaban on 5+accts because reddit did what similar pornhub did, sanatize the site and only corporate content was left. it was getting increasingly hard to comment as anything other than right wing comments.
That's what I think happened to me, seems weird that so many of us are getting banned at the same time. It's different for me though, I get banned or downvoted to oblivion if I express any right wing ideas. It's 98% leftist there now it seems. Wouldn't surprise me if they ban r/conservative entirely this year.
I think the opposite happening more than that
Which subs pray tell?
there was a massive uptick of shadowbanns, and permabans around the week of feb 12, i think reddit is purging as much as they can right now. reddit, huffman wants to sell off the site asap.
That's around when my account was 7-day suspended, early Feb. Interesting.
Yes I ended up on a forum funny enough they all cooberated with their own experiences,. The thing is some of the bans don't make sense at all. I attempted to appeal at least 3 accounts that received the vague site wide ban message, all denied. I think they only will consider the original banned account that triggered all the other ones. Before you could just use a new or different account and avoiding the banned sub, but they decided to ban it anyways
Yep I'm concerned they'll do that too. They'll find some posters in r/conservative that are inappropriate and use that as an excuse to ban. The sad thing is conservative is overall really open to other ideas and open discussion! Say anything not left on reddit and you get torn apart which is horrible.
Reddit admins are insanely biased towards right wingers. They talk about the same free speech bullshit while only allowing one side to speak freely.
They tolerated brigades organized by them for years despite brigades being prohibited, they allowed T_D to absolutely dominate the front page by vote manipulation until a huge majority of the site got too outraged (that's when the 2 post cap/day per sub was set, along with ignoring votes on pinned posts). T_D screamed and screamed and screamed about being censored when that happened (nothing was even removed), and everybody else was happy reddit FINALLY AFTER YEARS did something, anything, to make the site a bit more usable again. Tons of left leaning subs were banned long before they ever touched any far right extremism.
The left wing bias you might have seen comes from moderators who actually have expertise on their subjects (like science subreddits), not from the admins
Wait, the safe space sub where you can't comment unless you're a flaired Trump licker? That's open to other ideas?
There's plenty of criticism of him there.
Sure, conservatives are allowed to criticize their godhead - that gives the appearance of a free speech zone. But they sure are the only ones that can without being banned, and it doesn't matter if they do because they will never not vote for the traitor.
Would just be nice to be able to have open dialogue instead of all this tribalism and rage and arson and violence and assault and whatnot. Seems like a fair ask but everyone has lost their minds lately it seems.
Right wingers are being taught to believe all pushback against the beliefs fed to them are illegitimate and personal attacks, it's cult like behavior to make it harder for them to learn and change.
I know I can't fathom it. It honestly frightens me. The lefts behaviour is a big reason I swung right, tolerance and acceptance of difference is important to me and a chunk of left just aren't like that anymore. If r/conservative were openly behaving like many left wingers on reddit they'd rightly be condemned. It's so wrong
Insanity. You're telling yourself that the groups which prides itself on hate are more receptive to you than groups which promotes cooperation and understanding? Maybe ask a psychiatrist what that says about you. You're supposed to be tolerant to people who act in good faith, but nobody must be tolerant to hate.
The right is full of infighting too, but it's about who is the most devoted to the dear leader. Challenge their arguments openly and you'll see them act far worse than any leftist you've ever seen.
