Does having a lead moderator fervently on the side of the left mean anything or not?

Put it this way, you can say shit like "all Republicans are stupid/evil" in a topic multiple times and have your messages marked and nothing will happen. It happens multiple times a day.

If you were to say the same thing about democrats you'd be moderated in like 10 minutes. I remember being modded for "generalizing" Democrats. If I had a dollar for every time a conservative was "generalized" as being shitty on CE I wouldn't have to work for the rest of my life.

If you were to say "donald Trump has dementia and is stupid" before the 2020 presidential election your message would stand. If you even suggested(back then or even now) that Joe Biden has cognitive decline you will be moderated, in about 10 minutes.

Honestly the mods/admins don't even try to hide it anymore, likely because Reddit doing the same thing has emboldened them and they are convinced they are "on the right side of history" an are doing the right thing by censoring the ideas of people who think differently than them.

lmao, a topic literally JUST got modded on here asking "why are you allowed to show support for the GOP on this board", detailing in the body text how showing support for hate groups is usually frowned upon. i posted in it thinking it was only going to be locked, but moments later it was gone from my AMP.

still want to claim that this board has a left leaning bias?

While were on the subject of moderations here, I do wanna point out the inconsistencies.

weve got people here who support the party of womens rights and equality! And yet I see the hypocrisy when im look through every day and see the she comes to you with her mommy milkers hanging out and says hey ugly how you doing

its like look, if youre gonna sit here and tell me you support womens rights and then allow shit like that, Im gonna call you a hypocrite. That shit needs to be modded.

Calm down. Neon has had a handful of suspensions and like 3 accounts banned just in the last couple/few months.

I didn't say you could call them racists and bigots. I said you can call them stupid and evil, because I've literally marked dozens of messages that say that stuff in the past few weeks and literally nothing has happened.

If I were to call Democrats stupid and evil I would get modded before I could blink. If I were to dunk on Joe Biden I'd get modded, you can literally say anything you want about Trump (people call him a pedo, Nazi etc all the time here and don't get modded).

People call Trump a nazi and/or fascist because his actions has indicated both nazi sympathy and an affinity for fascism.

You call biden demented because you drown yourself in right-wing misinformation.

At numerous right wing rallies, the presence of Nazis and the KKK are verified numerous times and in large numbers. From Charlottesville to that recent DeSantis rally, and many in-between.

Conservatives as a whole don't seem particularly concerned about it either.

*left winger posts multiple pictures of Donnie hanging out with noted pedophile ring leader Jeff Epstein as well as his multiple accusations of sexual assault and his creepy sexual comments toward his own daughter*

*right winger says Biden fucks kids because a facebook meme from right wingers said he did and everyone knows it's the democrats who are pedos because they don't treat homosexuals and transgender as complete dog shit*

Fwiw my last moderation was actually for equating the swastika to a certain subsection of right wing beliefs that worship a certain political figure, so it's certainly not free reign here to bag on the right.


My last one was for implying something bad about people who vote for certain politicians. According to the super duper totally censored and oppressed right wingers.... that shouldn't have happened to me because I have a different set of rules applied than they do.

How so? My entire point is "voting for the party that isn't entirely evil isn't really a high standard of moral virtue and certainly doesn't require much time or effort, you could do a lot more".

How's that "divorced from reality"?

Its not bad and Im not against it, though I do wish there was a bit more self awareness about the issue. If someone was like yea Im pretty liberal and I realize outside of these message boards a lot of people dont think the same way I do. Id be like cool, got a self aware person here.

but instead its more like no Im not liberal I look this test Im 22.5 on the scale, not liberal at all!
