It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.

I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.

    I really liked /r/latestagecapitalism but I got banned for talking smack about China, and how the authoritarianism of the USSR and its child states didn’t line up with the values they tried to espouse.

    Permanently banned. Appeal ignored. Disappointing, but good riddance I suppose.

      They went to the deep end at some point. Though that sub was always somewhat weird, gave me astroturf vibes or that they’ve some hidden agenda. I think I’ve been banned from there as well.
