A community gets ruined either by getting too large (Eternal September, evaporative cooling effect) or moderator ineptitude. I respected that this socialist subreddit could somewhat maintain its niche character while allowing good-faith opposition. 90% of their userbase still sucked at counter-intuitive concepts in social-science, but that's true of many remaining centrist or conservative subs on Reddit (eg. r/timpool, r/theleftcantmeme, r/conservative).

Today, I noticed my flair had switched from the unique [malthusian ancap] to the [regarded lolbert] dunce cap. I find out that a recent comment of mine had unceremoniously removed, rather than collecting dust. In fairness, I wrote that on 2 hours of sleep and realize that the incomplete 2nd sentence might have been misconstrued as attacking the parent comment instead of critiquing Sowell. Still, my suspicion is that a trigger-happy janny saw my 3rd sentence as more threatening to their narrative than the usual right-wing comments they leave up. That's a red flag towards what other content they've been pruning, left or right leaning.

My fault for having any faith in tarts who have a century-long tradition of using the incoherent definition of liberal. Side-note: I also noticed that r/outoftheloop lost the neutral PoV it had 9 years ago.

I'm posting here since r/kia2 used to vet based off activity in anti identitarian subreddits, including stupidpol. I'm also asking if this thread about only spam-marked comments becoming invisible was or still is accurate.
