They’d just ban you, they like their echo chambers

u/SilkenSeraph 1d ago

Well said! 😂

I'm not saying that I disagree, but almost every sub is an echo chamber.

A lot of subs you can atleast say unpopular shit and just get downvoted. Conservative subs WILL ban you for not agreeing with The Agenda

On r/conservative, your comments are automatically hidden unless you have a flair, which you can only get through proving you're a conservative by showing a long conservative commenting history. They then decided that this wasn't good enough, since some conservative flaired users were still disagreeing with their overlords, so they decided that anyone who showed dissent was a leftist plant and started banning them. The party of free speech and facts that don't care about your feelings!

left - leaning subreddits will ban you for no real reason as well, I've personally been banned from /r/justiceserved for standing up for women's rights in a subreddit that they don't like, and from /r/onguardforthee for posting "misinformation" that was literally a link directly to the government of Canada's website.

r/justiceserved isn't a left leaning sub, it's full of copaganda and videos of women getting beat up by men twice their size. And I'm pretty sure r/onguardforthee is just the people from r/Canada who weren't overly racist, but are still conservative by Canadian standards. Canada has been hit hard by intense Russian misinformation campaigns online. It's crazy.

This is true of most any political sub

u/No_More_Dakka 1d ago

so will leftist subs

u/CackleandGrin 1d ago

You have to be a lot ruder, though. In a right wing sub, you get banned for disagreeing. In a left wing sub, you get banned for disagreeing while also calling the other posters braindead NPCs.

I was banned from 196 for saying trump was likely to win the race due to the shooting and candidate change. Leftist subs literally arent any better at banning people they disagree with

u/10art1 1d ago

Bro I'm pretty progressive and I've been banned from several left-wing subs for disagreeing.

u/CackleandGrin 1d ago

Which one/s?

u/10art1 1d ago

Latest one that comes to mind is fauxmoi, but I don't keep track.

You’re not wrong, I was banned from a leftist sub or two for disagreeing with The Agenda. I don’t think it’s as bad as conservative subs tho. More likely to get mass downvoted and yelled at. But yeah you’re not wrong.

Sorry , here on Reddit we can’t be moderate we can only be extreme

Reddit is an echo chamber

u/Secure_Bedroom6351 1d ago

Lmao the irony of anyone on reddit calling something an echo chamber will never not be funny

2

u/isnotreal1948 1d ago

You thought you were so smart posting this 😭

u/Secure_Bedroom6351 1d ago

Oh right sorry reddit actually isn't one big echo chamber it promotes free thought and expression for sure

u/ItsAdvancedDarkness 1d ago

Rofl those assclowns used the bullshit marketing slogan as their sub name? Amazing, they're so far up their own ass.

u/Mammoth_Bag_5892 1d ago

I keep reporting that subreddit as a hate group.

They literally ban you just for disagreeing, even if you say something true and link proof.
