KBIN is not implementing promised improvements in moderation, federation, and fighting spam. I have given up on this platform, and I can't recommend anyone to put any effort into it any longer.

I remember this was linked on the LeftWingMaleAdvocates subreddit before it was privated. I do not know who made it, but it is an archive of all posts and comments submitted there. The association with the red pill is unfortunate, but this seems like the best way to read the old posts now.

Edit: Seems like the subreddit is back up. https://www.reddit.com/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates/

I don't think that association with the red pill is accidental at all. I would be shocked if there is anything left wing going on here or there.

I actually saw a decent amount of left wing thought coming out of mensrights, honestly. I think the presumption you're making is that feminism is the truest form of left-wing thought, and it's not, and is frequently in opposition to leftism while claiming righteousness for itself.

If you had seen the (now private) LWMA subreddit, you would see that we are left-wing. That is the reason why I do not go to r/MensRights or other red pill communities. I disagree with them and disagree with right-wing views. We needed to archive the posts so they would not be lost, and this is the only way it would have happened.

Edit: And frankly, I kind of agree with a previous comment of yours that the discussions here so far have not been productive. The discussions from the LWMA subreddit were far more productive and interesting. I feel like everything that has been here so far is kind of vapid rehashing of stuff we all already believe. I myself don't feel like I have too much to contribute. I think both LWMA and the Kbin are completely dead, unfortunately.

The community on Kbin is just starting. We're still very small. Give it time.

There is a clear right-wing majority on r/MensRights, but I think it's mixed enough and still a good site for discussion, and especially to get valuable content.

But I also have to say that that sub used to be much better, more focused on rights, with stricter mods, even the community would quickly intervene when someone did things like mistaking women for feminism.
I think it is getting worse due to a gradual migration from mgtow.

It is, because we had nothing to do with them archiving the subreddit.

And I will not allow any attempts at purity spiralling here, which is why I removed your other comments.

You should take a look. You might be surprised.

I'm basing these comments on what I've seen in this community already. I was not surprised, or impressed
