No they do not. I wasn't really a big reddit user, I mainly used it for programming subs and participating in very small subs based on specific interests. I didn't realize how oppressive it was until I tried to interact about Covid stuff, but it seems like they have treated other topics and communities like this as well

Reddit hates dissent. Full stop. And it’s not just Covid.

Go on r/Europe. Try criticising the Ukrainian government, or supporting the edit of a member state from the EU, or defending the Hungarian government.

Go on any gay related website. Try declaring that you are gay and right wing. You don’t have to be right wing, just being classical liberal will piss a lot of gay and troon Redditors off. I got a lot of shit on r/AskGayBros for not being left wing. That sub acts like the majority of people on r/RightWingLGBT were monsters until Reddit banned the latter sub. Ironically, r/RightWingLGBT is not that right wing, just right of centre. Not harmful at all. But a gay person who isn’t a communist is a threat to the Reddit admins.

Try criticising feminism anywhere except the redpill subs. You’ll get downvoted.

Fuck Reddit.

Started in 2016 when "correct the record" rebranded to shareblue as hillary's online propaganda arm. Armies of bots manned by shills. Ugly times.

From what I've heard, Reddit started going to shit around 2012. It was still mostly good until 2016, when shit hit the fan.
