I'm glad this isn't a thing on the subreddit I moderate..

be sure to use masstagger to make sure there really isn't any misinformation, right-wingers can be surprisingly sneaky

You really cant determine if something is misinformation simply by looking who posted it. Right-wingers also get things right sometimes, just like left-wingers arent always correct.

lol I'm tagged as a /r/conspiracy user. Shouldn't have argued against some nutjobs over there, I feel dirty now.

Masstagger really needs an update. IIRC, they did not update the list of right-wing subreddits.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 years ago (1 children)

yeah, a update that accounts for off-shore websites would also be welcome

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago

That would be almost impossible to do I think but yeah a lot of new right wing subreddits or their allies aren't tagged, the list hasn't been updated for a long time.
