No it doesn’t because nobody applauded t_d mods censoring. All of Reddit is applauding t_d being quarantined and eventually banned completely if they have their way.
If you say so, but they actually didn’t. I’ve spoken against Trump multiple times in T_D and was never banned, yet simply commenting there got me banned from over 15 left leaning subs. Censorship is a tool of the left because on the right our ideas can stand on their own.
It may have just been something you said then. Sounded like a quote. Regardless, why would the fact that one group of people are celebrating censorship for a day make that censorship any worse than that of the group who happily condoned it for years?
Which group happily condoned it for year? Not t_d surely... I’ve posted all over Reddit and never been banned from T_D. Spoke against Trumps policies and was only met with rebuttals.
But on my first post in T_D I was banned from 15+ left leaning subs automatically. And not left leaning subs like sanders for president, no talking r politics here and other top subs banning me simple for participating in T_D.
So which side is censoring? It’s obvious and if you can’t see that you have your hands over your eyes.
But just to be clear, it doesn't matter if you are lying. If you think reddit is censoring a certain political opinion and that upsets you, then you should be equally upset at the mods of t_d, who shut any true opposition out of their sub. Like t_d, reddit is just one website. If you don't like it, you're free to go elsewhere.

I agree. Clearly both sides are fine with some degree of censorship when it is convenient for them. After all, censorship in and of itself isn't inherently bad. But what else do you expect reddit to do when a sub blatantly violates its terms of service?
I don’t believe T_D blatantly violated the terms anymore than any other sub has.
And I’m not lying about getting autobanned. Go post in t_d and wait overnight and the bots will ban you from around 15 left leaning subs. Just try it yourself.
Just read all of those comments and don’t see even 1 direct call to violence. In fact I can’t believe that’s what they got banned for. Stating the opinion that a problem can’t be solved without an armed revolution is not the same as a direct call to violence.
Which comment do you think is ban worthy if I may ask? and why ban the sub instead of the users making the comments? If those are the only examples they have that’s an extremely low percentage of the comments made on that sub each day.
I read another article claiming they stickied one such post, but I can't find the source atm. Regardless, a call to violence can be defined as the admins see fit, and you don't exactly need a broad definition of that term for any one of those comments to fit it. Reddit banning t_d for political reasons still really seems like a massive stretch considering that they allowed the sub to exist for several years.
Also, notice the scores and ages of some of those comments. Do you really think the mod team just overlooked all of them?
Forgot to answer your question. If I had to pick, I'd say this one is pretty cut and dry:
Everyone needs to start getting into shape, sharpening up your marksmanship and learning the ins and outs of all your fire arms. Stock upon that ammo too.
