Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    I definitely get what you mean and I think the idea that you can get away with no censorship is naive. However, they could just as easily be talking about r/conservatives use of conservative only posts and their banning of anyone sharing opposing viewpoints.

      I doubt it. Just the word authoritarianism has been mostly co-opted by the ultra right in American colloquialismz.

      I don’t know of many people on the left in the US that are complaining censorship.

        Idk I feel like I’ve heard loads of media call desantus and trump authoritarian. The don’t say gay stuff is definitely censorship. I think the right just has an obsession with calling out BS censorship.

          Yeah I guess your right. It does it get used by left groups as well. It’s just different contexts.

          Calling desantus authoritarian is accurate imo.lol
