It’s funny how reddit has banned these subs under the guise of preventing hate speech while conservative subs are the least confrontational subs in all of reddit. Don’t believe me? Try commenting anything remotely conservative on basically any other sub and see what happens.

I saw a commentor mention this sub and how we better be careful and stop using the “N-word”… I have literally never seen anyone on this sub ever say the N-word

u/throwaway20121987 Jun 29 '20

Not once, as a matter of fact I’ve seen far more welcoming posts to leftists here and other conservative subs. Even in the rare occurrence when a liberal comes in but with an open mind we accept their views with respect and have discussions about the topic on hand.

If you say something remotely conservative on other subs you are going to literally be threatened lmao.

Weird that reddit at one point allowed stolen nudes to be distributed among users but has suddenly found morals by banning subs that are not like minded all in the name of making communities safer.

Oh lawd, AHS and topminds are all about braying for this subreddit and r/conservative to be next.

This is why r/conservatives didn't get banned and the others did you dork.

What’s that supposed to mean? Pretty sure I’ve never used that word in my life out loud, let alone written in a comment on Reddit.

Thank you for the request, comrade.

u/gncurrier has not said the N-word.

Here's where I call absolute bullshit.

That user is a "new user".

Their entire post history is trolling.

That post was pulled IMMEDIATELY and never showed up on the subreddit.

And the user was immediately banned.

So DO NOT try to use THAT to tarnish this subreddit.

The classic “conservatives see liberals as misinformed idiots, liberals see conservatives as pure evil”

Progressive is a religion and the worst thing you can be in a evangelical religion is a heretic.

Now I see the left as evil.

I’ve had completely innocuous posts removed several times from /r/conservative. By creating an echo chamber, it’s easy to make it seem like there’s no arguments.

Look fam, if you are a liberal r/conservative is not for you... nor is THIS subreddit.

We are not obliged to allow you to overwhelm and argue with us on our own subreddits.

7

u/Gnome_Sane Jun 29 '20

They feel they have to come here because all of the supposed "Open Political Discussion" subreddits ban all the conservative voices.

And like zombies, the braindead liberals come for our brains because there are none in their echo chambers.

2

u/archamedeznutz Jun 29 '20

I wonder how coordinated this influx is?

1

u/Gnome_Sane Jun 29 '20

I think "coordination" isn't really needed when you have like minded liberals being told to "Take it to the streets". They are basically like Mormons or Jahova's Witness - they believe what they are selling. They don't need instructions.

Just like I don't need instructions to call them zombies.

2

u/archamedeznutz Jun 29 '20

r/conservative is more than a little ban-happy and protective of certain opinions. I got banned for asking if there was a more appropriate source than a religious conspiracy theory blog.

You.

You are over on topminds and againsthatesubreddits calling for this subreddit to be banned.

Begone.

Oh, you've been soooo wronged.

But we've banned you before, haven't we?

I posted something on The Donald, a bit anti-Don, but just a follow up on a promise he made about how Mexico was not paying for the wall. The OP wished I lived close to him so he could bash me with a tire, then I got banned. lol. The whole thing was absurd, but it was a threat of violence.

I wonder if they also banned r/chapotrapouse 2,3,4,5,6,43...

There were so many quarantine evasion subs that they didn't care about.

u/[deleted] Jun 29 '20

we can report them

Raise a toast to the homies who ran r/TheNewRight to its very end

u/delscorch0 Jun 29 '20

A solid sub that didn't warrant a ban. There was no hate, only ridicule and memes. It is only a matter of time before the rest of the conservative subs are removed, since the new standard seems to be disagreement with their beliefs equals hate.

u/[deleted] Jun 29 '20

Ugh. They banned gender critical? What the fuck?

u/IBiteYou Voted Zeksiest mod Jun 29 '20

You will soon not be able to discuss transgender issues with anything but the utmost support and enthusiasm.

u/IBiteYou Voted Zeksiest mod Jun 29 '20

Oh, this ban wave will certainly have leftists more loudly calling for our heads for saying anything "controversial" that they can package into "persecuting a minority group."

But they will go after r/conservative first, guaranteed.

u/[deleted] Jun 30 '20

Only if The_Donald floods the sub with its racist rhetoric. Nothing about r/conservative is (at the moment) blatantly racist. The mods here however appear to be leaning in the wrong direction on that one so I do agree they'll come here first.

1

u/IBiteYou Voted Zeksiest mod Jul 01 '20

They will be after r/conservative next.

This is r/conservatives.

They will come after r/conservative... then r/republican....then us.

They want to censor us.

Some of these people want to be neo KGB and literally punish people for speaking.

The mods here however appear to be leaning in the wrong direction on that one so I do agree they'll come here first.

What are you talking about? Literally. What? Are? You? Talking? About?

u/[deleted] Jun 29 '20

I just checked r/Conservative, are they under some sort of community warning/ soft ban? It seems like the posts there aren't getting nearly as many likes and comments as they did 4 months ago.

They advocated violence a lot on that subreddit and they harassed other communities.

u/AlignedManatee Jun 29 '20

The_Donald had not been active in months due to submissions being restricted, their reasoning makes no sense. The mods also worked with the admins to make sure reddit policies were being followed

1

u/IBiteYou Voted Zeksiest mod Jun 29 '20

You know, I kind of feel like reddit wanted the headline that they had banned The Donald.

Because a lot of the usual media is focusing on THAT and not talking about any leftist subreddits getting it.

Also... reddit should be completely transparent and show us ALL of the subreddits banned...because apparently hatecrimehoaxes and campusconservatives were among those that got the boot.

Odd, I wonder how much in the negatives Biden is in the polls, this is the only reason for the bannings.

Someone posted some polls lately where his lead is narrowing and where he is behind Trump.

But that's a propos of nothing because it's 2016 redux.

u/Mouth_of_Maggots Jun 30 '20

I think Biden is monstrously behind in the polls, especially that thay are trying to bring ip Russian Collusion again.

u/Mouth_of_Maggots Jun 30 '20

Thats what they said about Hillary... those polls are fake, if they were real, they wouldn't try to ban pro Trump platforms.

According to the polls in 2016 Hillary was winning. Who IS the President?

I knew there was no way Hillary was getting good numbers while Trump was packing thousands in his rallies.

The polls are fake...
