Comment on: Short of boycotting, is there anything that can actually be done about the ludicrously biased moderation of popular subreddits?
I don't know if that's entirely true
Look at /r/sino - they are as right wing as it's physically possible to be, practically, in terms of conservative values, and yet are massively censoring discussion

It's a fine place to read interesting articles. If I wanted bleeding edge jargon I wouldn't be looking for a subreddit, but for new interesting findings, big shakeups and so on: it's not bad.
Or at least it wasn't bad. Now I find myself less able to defend it.

Comment on: r/worldnews censors an article critical of the genocide in East Turkestan using "misleading title" even though the title is exactly the same as the one on the linked artical
The frustrating thing about this sub is that people actually bothered by censorship and people who want to be allowed to post whatever obscene shit they like must walk side by side.
The guy's toxic as fuck, but the example he provides in the OP is unjustified censorship. While I don't like the poster, I would defend his right to post that.

Comment on: Permaban from /r/jobs with no explanation
OP's toxic as hell, but damned if unjustified censorship pissed me off. Even going through deleted threads and comments I see no reason OP should be known to the /r/jobs mods let alone banned. Unless there was some personal messaging that occured which was not shown.
