Reddit

Ironically, I swing by old.shittyplace.com to check out /r/conservative and/or /r/askaconservative every so often to see if any of them are starting to figure it out yet (spoiler alert: they aren't, or they are celebrating it), and they always have a first page thread about how Reddit is just a liberal recruiting mouthpiece these days etc etc.

Today is no exception.

And for a bonus they have a thread about how Ask Reddit is just out of control with bait for conservatives - I took a peek and there are two current threads that have anything at all to do with conservatives.

The conservative persecution complex is strong, never fear.

Remember, conservative voices must be getting silenced because they never shut the fuck up telling us so.

Trump is openly preparing to invade both Canada and Mexico and these motherfuckers are bitching about Musk being called what he is!

I just got a violent content warning for upvoting someone calling musk a "stupid person's version of a smart man" on a post about his trucks being vandalized.

I’m about at my wits end with Reddit as a regular user. I have 2 accounts that I’ve used there for a while. One of them is my main user account, the other I use mostly to mod some subs.

My main account recently caught a 7 day ban because of their stupid new “Violence” bullshit. It’s so targeted, and blatantly obvious that it really only applies to comments about certain things. They removed the comment that supposedly triggered it, but all I was was

Hey Leon, you remember when you hit the cybertruck with a baseball bat? Why don’t you go fuck yourself with it.

That’s it, that’s all I said. You could post that same comment directed at an actual Reddit user, and not catch a ban.

Don’t misunderstand me here. I am not now, nor have a I ever been under the delusion that Reddit was the bastion of free speech they tried to claim for years. But seriously, they need to get their fucking heads out of their fucking asses.

Removing stuff from reddit will make people look for alternatives, good for lemmy.

I got perma banned from my OG account for engaging with ruzzian trolls. Apparently telling them they'd look good fertilizing sunflowers, and digging babushka a fresh latrine pit is "promoting violence". No warnings, just straight to ban. Reddit allows obvious ruzzian gas lighters, but bans those who call them out. That is Reddit today, a hotbed of ruzzian and nazi propaganda.

Started to notice the censorship...tried to warn others...got banned...came here

Reddit sure loves to protect U.S. fascists.

I just deleted my reddit account. 🤟😎

I deleted my reddit account yesterday. I used Revedit and I realised that most of the comments I had made on there had been removed or hidden without me ever realising...

It's become pretty clear that Reddit has chosen to slide into corpo-fascism. Don't be surprised when signs of dissent are squashed, when rebellious subreddits are systematically suppressed until they're removed entirely, when the accounts of those who resist are closed and IP banned. Abandon all hope of free expression there, they've chosen their side and aren't going to entertain the opposition any longer.

Tesla is losing a pile of cash, anyone know how low it needs to go until Musk is going to get a margin call and the whole thing comes crumbling down? He has leveraged himself to the max.

This is so sad to see. I had many years of fun on reddit. I wish it wouldnt have become so commercialized. Money just ruins shit too often

I feel like everyone here either doesn’t like Reddit or has been permanently banned. Like me lmfao

So desperate to even be Zuckerberg relevant pathetic
