Not just that, but it's a fallacious argument that we can't have multiple interests. I use ConPro more than any other forum, but I still make occasional comments in funny, KiA2, and gaming. I'd comment in other communities, but the site is so small that the hobbies/interests I have are pretty inactive here and don't make it to the trending page.
I grew up playing video games, and I still game a little bit to relax. Just because I use ConPro more than other forums doesn't immediately invalidate my other interests and make my statements about them wrong, and it doesn't make my posts or comments "brigading". That's a Reddit tier argument used to ban all dissent. Remember how Reddit power mods started banning users who merely participated in wrongthink subs?
I still have strong opinions about Hollywood, TV shows, and movies, even though I cancelled cable years ago, don't subscribe to any streaming service, and very rarely go see a movie in the theater. Just because I'm less actively involved in something doesn't mean I can't have an opinion, or that it's "brigading".
KIA1 tried to ban anyone who posted on T_D as "brigaders" because they didn't want any icky right wingers in thier "mostly left wing" sub because it might infect them with logic and reason.
That's all this always reeks as. "Bad group member" might have some good ideas that I accidentally agree with, that would make ME bad, so we need to remove this infection.
