I think they are doing a huge disservice to the left by banning right wingers because they will just migrate to even more unhealthy echo chambers like 4chan and use this ridiculous ban wave as an example of leftist corruption and censorship.

I agree. It's a bit tin-foil hat conspiracisty, but as a lefty (still am) I almost wonder if it might be the new form of campaign for Trump, with the tiktok kids thing too. Since the Russian bot strategy of 2016 wouldn't work this year, and I never saw Trump showing himself as openly vulnerable before. When a leader/movement seems vulnerable usually voters who wouldn't have, vote to support. Even those who are not really sure. Or us feminists with a niche opinion, who just want to speak freely. Plus also moderate right wing subs were banned from reddit, or are under attack, if I'm not mistaken. Anyway then I remember the fact that democrats are actually passing all those laws to erase sex based rights, silencing people who dissent, and the anti-hate thing u/BettysBitterButter mentioned, and I get out of conpiracy mode.
