    Trumptards took over Clubhouse without the backing from the CEO. It’s a collective strategy, and not one man’s bigotry

      That’s pretty crazy. Do you have examples of Reddit admins directly working with Democrat campaigns or politicians to remove content? I don’t think Hunter Biden’s dick pics count, as revenge porn is already illegal.

      Edit: For anyone confused as to how my reply relates to the above post, the above used to be a claim that Reddit worked with democrats to remove content, but is now edited to say something completely different.

          I’m confused, what Democrat politicians or campaign staff coordinated removing those communities from Reddit? And why would Democrats even need to? Those communities broke sitewide rules egregiously and frequently. Considering how long they were allowed to keep going, it seems more likely (though I’m sure not the actual case) that Donald Trump’s campaign coordinated with Reddit admins to keep The_Donald open.

      The difference is that a community of people is downvoting and upvoting content. It’s not one person controlling what you see.

      But also one man’s bigotry letting the place become a massive cesspool beyond the cesspool it already was.
