How so?

If there was the same structure here, there isn’t a doubt in my mind that some of the ultra right political talk users would certainly vie for moderation power and to ban people with whom they disagreed.


This a hypothetical, which doesn’t happen in practice here.

Your post would have been accepted had you said your wife was trans and that men can get pregnant

reddit sucks, and it started its downfall when the mods there nearly universally decided that political things should only be discussed on specific boards. In practice, this really only meant a crackdown on normal thought in favor of degenerate leftist beliefs.

Unfortunately, this site is heading down that road currently.

The majority of subreddits would outright ban people for participating in the The_Donald yet claim to be fighting for “democracy.”

It has seeped into every subreddit, The_Donald and FatPeopleHate were absolute joys but were shut down due to SRS and other joyless fricks running the website.

No not even factually close to being the case. I frequent 20+ subreddits and out of 10s of thousands of posts I can't remember one that was social/political or gave me any indication of the poster's hair color or soy intake. It is pervasive in the political and social forums but that is a small portion of the total of Reddit but if that is the main content you seek then that is what you will get.
