Just posted a question/discussion on Reddit about EV tarrifs. Was up for several hours, generated a great discussion and then it was removed by a mod. They reckoned it shouldn’t be there, despite loads of super-helpful comments that were relevant to the community. The mod directed me to another sub. I posted in there and it was auto removed in minutes. Then my account was banned. Platform is fucked.

    the problem is all the AI crap reaches into your tiny niche subreddits.

    my local city sub had like 1000 regular users. but around '23/'24 w/ the last election it got 'turfed to shit and tons of AI bot removals of legit posts. most of the posting also became rage-baiting over political topics, or tourists making really dumb/controversial posts.

      How are you so sure of that? What if you’re the one that’s radicalised not them and you just not aware of that face?

        because most of my beliefs are boring and non-exciting. that’s now i know i’m not radicalized.

        and the the radicals of both sides absolutely hate my stands on politics. if both sides hate you, you’re not radical
