Reddit Censorship of post comments is completely out of control (youtube.com)

This is a wide spread phenomenon on the platform. Sometimes its just a few comments or even dozens of comments in response to an original comment on a post being grouped together in another button saying (x number of replies) but when you open those replies its either nothing, or significantly less replies than the prompt described. Its mostly all on posts that are political in nature relating to the current fascist takeover in the USA, Luigi Magnione, amazon union busting, anti laborer’s rights legislation, loosening of child labor laws and other topics related to the wider topics regarding disappearing human rights under emboldening fascist authoritarianism. many of us have seen the news articles that mention allegations of reddit censoring comments and giving people violations for liking certain content but nothing is being said about the actual extent of this censorship. But when you can see hundreds of comments being deleted from a post such as this one here, it doesn't bode well for the future

Really? I found lots of pretty far-left subs that were pretty friendly to those ideas. Wish I could find more here, honestly, but the ones I've seen seem kinda dead.

those subreddits exist and i was part of them (they were the ones who told me about lemmy) and, yes, they're dead and/or dying because the constant and overwhelming stream of clueless "gotchas" from people unaware of their propagandization is depressing and tiring AF and that made most/all of the leftists redditors leave for islands of sanity, like lemmy.

i'm only partially grateful that reddit's enshitification pushed people here since they're perpetuating the same asshattery that's made reddit and this country turn into shit.

I meant I wish there were more of those communities on lemmy.

those subreddits are well represented as .ml, lemmygrad and hexbear on lemmy.

lemmy itself is a spiritual successor to r/communism, r/socialism, r/anarchy, r/marxism, etc. mixed with r/linux, r/foss, r/technology, etc.

I kinda wondered if lemmy.ml was a left-leaning server, but the description didn't seem to say anything about it. shrug Didnt' know about the others tho thanks.

Lemmy.ml is foss technology topics focused and most of its users are leftists; this is something you could only know by hanging out on Lemmy long enough.

The other 2 are leftist politics focused with general interest topics and they say so in their descriptions.

Ahh, I only knew about lemmy.ml and its description doesn't mention leftism at all so I wasn't sure. But thanks, I'll check them out!
