    Basically declaring that they don’t allow free speech.

    “Hey, you have been liking things we disagree with and we need an echo chamber here, align with us or fuck off. Sincerely, the money hungry bitches of the internet! Also heil daddy musk!”

      To be clear, they’re talking about banning right wing people. Reddit is one of the most liberal platforms you will find.

      You can’t even talk economics on Reddit without being downvoted to fuck, or banned.

      I am a centrist, and I routinely had posts removed and got banned from communities for saying things from actual textbooks taught currently in universities.

      No one is attacking the free speech of the left unless it’s radical and advocating for physical harm.

        Incorrect. I got banned yesterday for “Eat the Rich” and Luigi favoritism. I believe the post in question (you never know with a Reddit ban because they dont show you) was responding to someone’s post that mentioned the French Revolution with a Guillotine gif and “Git-r-Done”.

        Yea, apparently I was plotting murder or something by doing that.

          I mean, advocating for eating people is in itself a crime, so maybe the bot thought you were trying to push for cannibalism? 😂
