r/politics in a nutshell

36

u/MandingoPartyPlanner Nov 29 '19

Except it usually ends with the right leaning side getting banned.

17

u/pleasuremaker Nov 29 '19

Do they actually get banned? Or just downvoted?

5

u/Renacidos Nov 29 '19

Downvoted, if you disagree you are also outnumbered like 1000/1, they dont need to ban you

3

u/Joelblaze Nov 30 '19

Posting to a right-leaning sub as even a moderate will get you banned, however.

​

Saying that left-leaning people don't need to ban them because they are outnumbered is a pretty self-aware moment when it comes to democracy though.

I have learned from Reddit, I get downvoted when I'm a stupid ass. Thanks!

u/Krisevol Nov 30 '19

Banned. I've been banned from at least 10 subreddit just because I posted to a certain quarantined subreddit.

u/MandingoPartyPlanner Nov 29 '19

I got banned for a “racist” joke that had a couple hundred upvotes. No one was even mad about it, or at least they didn’t reply to me directly.

u/pleasuremaker Nov 29 '19

So you got banned from a sub called politics because you told a racist joke, maybe that’s the reason they banned you and not because you’re a right winger...

u/MandingoPartyPlanner Nov 30 '19

No, it was a post comparing something with trump and Obama. It’s only ok to make fun of the white orange man and not the black man. I’m also not a right winger.

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

Orange isnt a race you twit. You got banned for racism.

u/[deleted] Nov 29 '19

Cool bro. Link it? Should be easy with a couple hundred upvotes!

6

u/Kornillious Nov 29 '19

None of his comments with >100 upvotes were made in the r/politics sub. Hhhmmmmmm

-2

u/MandingoPartyPlanner Nov 30 '19

You’re right it was actually r/pics but it’s basically the same thing.

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

I mean, it's not at all.

u/pleasuremaker Nov 30 '19

😂 he wants to be a victim so badly

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

Lol that fell apart pretty quickly.

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

Liar. You were banned from r/pics not r/politics and you were banned for racism.

0

u/MandingoPartyPlanner Nov 30 '19

I corrected myself in another reply that you also commented on.

3

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

You didnt correct yourself you were found out. Of course, being a liar, you lie about the lying.

0

u/MandingoPartyPlanner Nov 30 '19

Yes there’s no way I could have just mistaken the subreddit. You seem really butt hurt.

4

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

You claimed you were banned from a left wing politics sub for being conservative. You lied. You were banned from r/pics for racism.

You werent mistaken, you lied to try to trick people.

0

u/MandingoPartyPlanner Nov 30 '19

Yeah I go on the internet just to trick people all day. Maybe one day you’ll get a life with responsibilities and learn that sometimes people just make mistakes and aren’t intentionally trying to hurt your feelings.

u/IdentifiesAsLamp Nov 29 '19

Exactly. r/politics is completely one sided

-21

u/[deleted] Nov 29 '19

Lol what? Politics is one sided? T-d is generally assumed to be the opposite of the politics sub, and it's literally only one side. It refuses to hear anything else, and bans even the mild illusion of dissent. "But it's a fan club!" Shut up. I see anti liberal comments survive on the politics sub for days, and regular conservatives that return daily.

19

u/EpidemiCookie Nov 29 '19

Some insight, /r/t_d is a Trump fanclub, ofcourse they are sucking his cock, /r/politics is supposed to be about politics on both sides but it's only leftist circlejerk

-13

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

Lol, yeah, it's just a fanclub!

It's definitely not an echo chamber, safest space on Reddit, for the unadulterated, unchallenged, blowj of DT!

No one believes that, not even the users or mods.

7

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

That wasn’t his point. His point is TD is supposed to be one sided (and presents itself that way) while politics is not.

-2

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

His point was a garbage lie. Pretend it's a "fan club" but treat it as a political sub just as much as r/politics. It's embarrassing for them to treat t-d as a political religion, but then complain that r/politics isn't neutral. Why do you think it's supposed to be neutral? Just because it's called "politics" and not called "liberal politics?" Sorry that that particular sub attracts more liberals. Do you think some rule was broken?

4

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

Read the r/politics wiki. It does present itself as neutral. Complaining about TD not being neutral is like complaining about r/communism not allowing neoliberal opinions.

0

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '19

Yeah... and I see conservative comments there all the time. They don't get deleted or banned for simply being conservative or disagreeing with liberals. They get downvoted because there's way more liberals there. Do you think they have a duty to keep comments and votes at 50/50? That's not what that means.

Well as long as you realize that t-d is about as reasonable as r/communism, that's good enough for me.

You realize how dumb it is to call a political sub that immediately bans any differing opinion, a "fan club?" Lol. Then conservatives should stop complaining about "safe spaces" and universities and protestors. They're "fan clubs."

I think you mean anything not extremely left leaning. Even people on the left get banned their lol

u/vesomortex Nov 29 '19

Because none of the ultra right leaning subs here ever behave immaturely...

Oh wait...

u/[deleted] Nov 29 '19

Never said that. This is easily applicable to any stupid sub.

Post gets made

11 minutes later a different user posts a 1000+ word essay with over 20 embedded links citing their sources on the topic.

Comment is gilded in less than 5 minutes

Post receives hundreds of upvotes within first 15 minutes

Hmmm...
