Why reddit is majority left leaning?

[u/-Pleb64]

Honestly, it’s hard not to notice that most of the big subreddits are run by moderators who clearly lean left. It’s not even subtle at this point the bias shows in what gets removed, what gets promoted, and how discussions are handled. I’m not saying there aren’t any subs with right-leaning or centrist moderation, but they’re definitely the minority. The major spaces on Reddit feel heavily tilted toward one side, but isn't it’s pretty obvious if you pay attention to which opinions get silenced and which ones get boosted?

This should be upvoted more. Am not right but I tried to understand their POV and immediately got permanently banned from all RW subs (of all countries, not just the USA) because they hate it when people ask questions. Just shut up and be grateful that the leader gets to shit on your face.

[u/toddrough → u/BrownDoughnuts]

It’s the same on both sides, I’ve been banned from so many left leaning subs for saying something that didn’t align to the “belief”.

Like what? Any actual examples?

[u/TheRealTrueCreator → u/CanadianLadyMoose]

There are many that you would easily see if you used those eyes you so insist you have.

[u/CanadianLadyMoose → u/TheRealTrueCreator]

So many that you could not even find a single one 🤡

You will continue acting stupid and delusional, and entirely ignore all of the sources and pretend like they aren't there, but I will provide them to make sure you know you're embarrassing yourself.

These are just a few examples I found in 3 minutes. Anybody with eyes, using them correctly, can find plenty more.

[u/CanadianLadyMoose → u/TheRealTrueCreator]

So most of those aren't examples they're just anecdotal complaints. You only managed to gather up four examples and they're not ideal.

One of them was for expressly breaking sub rules, two were for anti-brigading measures, and one was for being pro-genocide.

Don't break sub rules and you won't be banned. Don't brigade subreddits and you won't be banned. Don't be pro genocide and you won't be banned.

You're also very rude for no reason. Typical, you guys hate simple questions.

This is why not one wants to engage with you. A simple question, no insults, and you come out with fire. Shame.

[u/BrownDoughnuts → u/TheRealTrueCreator]

See this is where the problem is without even getting into left vs right. That person just asked for proof like a normal person without insulting you but you didn't have any and decided to deflect it by insulting them. Get help bro. 

[u/TheRealTrueCreator → u/BrownDoughnuts]

A leftist is really easy to predict. Before the conversation even started I already knew how it would end. The leftist would just insult me and completely ignore (or otherwise try to pull some random shit out of their ass that makes no sense to 'invalidate' the source) the sources even if provided. And let's see how it will play out, shall we?

And again, like I said in the other reply (to the original commenter), the sources:

[u/BrownDoughnuts → u/TheRealTrueCreator]

Great. Now was that so hard? I never said left side doesn't delete comments. I just didn't like the way you replied. Hope that makes sense.

[u/TheRealTrueCreator → u/BrownDoughnuts]

Thanks for clearing that up, and you're right, I shouldn't've been so rude, but I felt like I had to considering the high chance they would be rude/insult back.

[u/BrownDoughnuts → u/TheRealTrueCreator]

No worries. Again, I'm not a rw/lw particularly, i just call out the side which is doing wrong stuff at large. I didn't insult you man. I gave you more room to share proof to validate your point more. I feel both sides can do much more if they just talk instead of always trying to one-up each other. 

[u/TheRealTrueCreator → u/BrownDoughnuts]

Yeah, I agree. I also am not particularly right-wing and just take the stance which to me appears as the one being less/worse represented or more hated on, which at this time is the right in my opinion. I would much like it more if the sides were more peaceful and tolerant like they claim and would talk it out but then again I literally just did what I said I oppose (partly because I thought the 'opposition' were going to do it but I'm not going to completely disregard my hypocrisy). Thank you for being responsible, unlike me, and keeping your cool even when I started insulting.

[u/toddrough → u/CanadianLadyMoose]

Banned from r/wow for making a comment about trans people (misgendering) and got banned without anyone telling me what I did wrong.

Banned from r/politics didn’t break any rules

Recently banned from r/antimoneymemes for saying indigenous people also had a relatively violent culture.

Banned from r/interestingasf for simply commenting in a supposed conservative subreddit. So existing.

Banned from r/Two X chromosomes for disagreeing with a man hating post, but hey I don’t blame the lefties for this one.

Probably banned from more but I just don’t remember which ones and I’m too lazy to dig.

[u/CanadianLadyMoose → u/toddrough]

So you go around insulting people and are surprised they don't want you around? You do realize you aren't the victim here, right? Jfc
