You think they would allow this on reddit?

MODERATORS
DenverCircleJerk had become the unofficial real Denver for a while now.
For real fun, though, open some of your comments in Denver, and many other subs in a private browser. They likely won't show up. Many subs seem very heavy at shadowbanning so many comments in recent months.
Reddit has been shit for so long now in so many ways. So many subs are ruled by shithead mods too and /r/Denver is one of them. They delete tons of posts instantly for no reason other than their own reasoning. They lock protest threads. Then they allow bots, astroturfers and nutjob cpnservatives to endlessly troll.
Reddit is cancer.
That being said, I used to be friends with one of the Denver subreddit mods. I'm not sure if he's still there or not.
You're better off gone - just use it for the few times you need to search something and transition your conversations to here, if that works for you. It's what I did, and I'm generally much happier with the switch.
People rent about reddit being left-wing
It's definitely not
I got permanently banned across all accounts for saying "bad bot" to a nazi sympathiser, because apparently saying that is "violent speech"
Reddit is very right wing, it's just that yanks don't know what actually left-wing looks like
This is why we need to move everyone over here. Everyone who is here who can still talk on Reddit should link posts to here and encourage people to leave. Alternatively go to the Denver Discord. But we need to get off Reddit. Like others have said. Reddit admins are most definitely hard-right with their heads so far up Trump and the Republicans collective ass that they can taste what they had for dinner...
I wonder if there is any appetite for de-elonizing State communications. A CO.gov mastodon instance would be handy.
Was the offending mod’s username synonymous with a very clean treenut?
I have just been permanently banned for having a discussion in r/unpopularopinion for having...an unpopular opinion. Because the person I was discussing it with reported me when I basically backed them in to a logic corner.
I got a 3 day ban and when I appealed and asked if I could report the mod I was given a permanent ban. Reddit is full of power hungry mods that push their agenda.
I am new here so have no idea what's it's like. I am a Scottish based Avs fan so the Avs community is about the only thing I will miss from Reddit.
