Why don't you post here which subreddits were banned exactly?

At a passer by, it would appear they are doing good by banning things that are toxic, but it's a slippery slope.

They outright ban anything that doesn't match the admin's political views, while letting toxic behavior slide if it does align with their political views.

As a result, the site is stuffed full of "yes men" moderators, and a userbase that is afraid to express any type of independent thought. There is no room for critical thought or debate outside the heavily curated and shallow comments that are allowed to see the light of day.
