It is sad. I don’t browse Popular anymore and stick to the subreddits I care about which aren’t political.

Even if you run across a “news” subreddit and comment on something that doesn’t seem Left, you will get banned right now. It’s very toxic.

Best to stay away from Popular

I’m kinda confused by this.

You’re saying that you look explicitly for things that conform to your political views, comment things with your political views, then get banned?

Do you have a link to an example?

r/politics is known for leaning heavily Left. There are a bunch of new subreddits popping up like r/inthenews that if you comment or post anything not leaning Left OR if you are a member of r/Conservative then you will be banned. If you try to use a separate account to bypass the ban then both accounts will be automatically banned by Reddit for 7 days. There is no appeal.

I was banned from r/Damnthatsinteresting, for example, because they said r/Conservative supports abortion. I have never seen that. It’s mostly just Trump leaning articles.
