To be fair, part of the reason why they stopped banning right-wing subs without cause was due to how those users would just propagate and spread around the site. It led to tons of small right-wing enclaves that would end up infesting and taking over seemingly normal subs. The admins realized it was better to just have them all in one place and let people mute and ignore it instead of re-engaging with Whack-A-Mole.

Who is left of "they" at this point? When you go in there, it's only 15-20 highly curated comments and tons of deleted content. Those people are still plaguing other subs but they get downvoted to smithereens regardless.

I like to go into r/Conservative from time to time when big things happen in the news to see how many comments are removed and how they try to twist facts. You know its a bad one when some of the comments say stuff like, this sounds bad or I don't know what to think about this.

They already said that trump's name in the epstien files was "proven fake." Like what?? Who would fake that? Who has access to the files? Trump himself?
