r/conservative has half their posts set to this. The other half, they whitelist all comments. First, comments are immediately removed. Then if a mod gets around to it, they may be restored. But after posting a few time and realizing the majority went nowhere, I stopped.
I can't imagine who would want to participate in that environment, if they knew what was going on. I'm sure the mods think it's necessary to remain on reddit, which may be true. Anything remotely conservative or Trump related was banned.
I imagine that's why T_D existed in the first place and was basically the actual conservative hub for reddit for its existence.
Its like the /MensLib and all those subs. They exist by convincing themselves to be pussyfooting cowards to remain on reddit with their milquetoast Left-Lite takes, while actual subs representing their cause still exist either way.
Yeah emphasis on the -ed. To me, the r/conservative thing is more than pussyfooting. They're purposefully creating a sort of straw man environment. In effect, perhaps not more echo chamber than any other sub, but they are more heavy handed about it and less transparent.
It is containment for reddit. Very contained. Some approved version of conservatism is broadcast.
Oh and very Zionist Jewish (or Christian Zionist, not really distinguishable) for those counting such things.
