Fuck off with the worst reddit sub
deleted by creator
It wasn’t. It was a far right shitfest with farrighties larping as people on the left badly and pushing shitty points of view, misrepresenting the left points of view, and being like “yeah actually correct and ‘based’” to shitty ones. It’s gross

Fascism is by definition far right.

Well yes, you used the less correct and less often used (the not first) definition.
But also the compass itself leads to such simplification to the point of ‘dunking on’ the ‘not me in my view’ people who generally aren’t entirely “left” or “right” which aren’t really clear terms
Pcm isn’t about nuanced discussion it was ‘tongue in cheek’ until it wasn’t. Just like the Donald started

You chose to come to a federated social media and are surprised to see people using it in federated ways?

Don’t worry about it. The zombies may appear to be thinking, but they’ve actually lost all thoughts long ago.
They call it a nazi sub because they can’t stand that people think differently. I mean look at this meme. Do you think this meme is promoting nazis? But these braindead people claim it does.

People will literally call anything that awful word, huh.
You’ve gotten way too used to Reddit censoring anything any more right-leaning than progressive communist. Very narrow worldview.
If you can’t even handle center-left shit because it’s too “right-wing”, go back to Reddit. And take your awful “trivialising awful historical groups by comparing them to things I slightly dislike” bs with you.

PCM has been threatened numerous times, because we can’t possibly have a space which isn’t an extreme-left echo chamber. Heck, while the subreddit does exist, if anyone who’s not an extreme progressive shares an opinion, they can get warned or banned at any time by Reddit admins. So, only the progressive left can actually use it without worrying over being completely banned from Reddit.
Conspiracy isn’t even strictly a right-wing thing, and even then that makes a grand total of 2 subreddits non-communists can even be on. Where.people can only talk about certain conspiracies.
For years, Conservative had literally no conservatives in the subreddit. It seems that with the current political shift this has changed, but I still guarantee anyone who tries to talk about the trending social issues on it gets banned by the Reddit admins. It seems the only conservative opinions allowed on Reddit are those of politicians (eg the whole Trump situation), and not those of social issues.
Yes, we have a few subreddits, technically — but we still need to be extremely careful when posting to them because openly being right-wing or even center-left can get you banned off Reddit. You can only talk about silly things which don’t actually matter. And what about subreddits which aren’t even supposed to be political? They end up constant communist propaganda machines, of course!
Also, you’re not understanding how communism works or the goal. Or you’re deliberately dishonest. Communists hope for a society where money isn’t necessary, and all goods are shared completely fairly. People who actually know about and follow communism are proud of this goal. If anyone’s insulting communists, it’s you for trying to pretend their goal is so absurd that they can’t possibly be aiming for it. The only thing that’s “pro-capitalist” about this meme, isn’t the idea of communism aiming for a moneyless society (as even communists believe this), but the idea of it being a negative thing.
And again, you Americans are way too fucking comfortable with over-using the name of a historically dangerous group. On behalf of Europe, learn history and shut up if you’re going to be doing that bs. It makes you look awful. Keep the groups we take seriously and know the dangers of out babyish name-calling. Names of deadly groups are not just names to call people who slightly annoy you.

Accidentally deleted last time when editing.
Do you actually read what I put before replying? I feel like I’m going to have to do a lot of repeating to get what I’m saying through your thick skull.
again, PCM, conservative, and conspiracy are all far-right
Well done! The right (not far right, not even the social right) get THREE subreddits, which we have to be extremely careful with using because Reddit mods like banning anyone who talks about anything other than the Trump situation and can ban you at any time for even commenting on them! Totally means Reddit as a whole is completely fair politically when all their other THOUSANDS of subreddits, even if they are not meant to be political, end up with constant pro-left posts.
You have no fucking clue what far-left even means if you think reddit is even remotely leftist.
If you don’t think Reddit is even left-wing, then I’d hate to see your idea of left-wing.
Why would an “extreme left” website allow these right-wing subs to continue existing? Why would they allow right-wing lunatics to have a voice on their platform?
Simple answer — they pretend to. If you dare actually go outside what the admins want, you get banned.
r/conservative bans people all the time for speaking against their echo chamber, but that’s not the same as admins banning users from reddit.
That was an extremely recent thing. Just a month ago, only the left-wing were posting on there. Also, yes it is different. Being banned from one subreddit because it wasn’t even meant for you and you’re just trying to troll isn’t the same as an entire app banning you because you’re not on the extreme left.
Ten seconds of searching on PCM and I found this post from a few days ago, still very much not removed by reddit
Same thing as with the subreddit thing, you think ONE post slipping through the cracks because it’s presented in an ironic way demonstrates the norm. If you try to talk about the situation seriously, you get banned.
I understand communism perfectly well, thanks.
Clearly not, if you think they want a capitalist system.
You’re an antisemitic fucktwit who is insulting what Jewish people went through during WW2 by comparing the group who tortured and massacred them (“N-zi”) to someone who simply has differing opinions to you. So, go fuck yourself. Americans have such a disgusting habit of using extremist group names as insults for no reason. Uncivilised.
I don’t know what else I could’ve expected from someone who continues to be on the radical left (the center-left are cool, and actually that’s exactly what I am, what used to be considered radical left in the 2000s but is now called “right-wing N-zi” by the new 2020s extremists). Your “I don’t want to be lectured by someone with [slightly different views from me I’ll use an extreme term for]” comment demonstrates the left perfectly. Only the right wants discussion. Left wants censorship and compliance. I’ve been happy to be taught about left politics, and that’s how I actually know communist theory, regardless of my opinions on it.
Edits: I hate formatting. Thought one-line enter was a thing on mobile.

While I don’t think Reddit is anywhere near the “extreme left” (that label would be better suited for several Lemmy instances) it does have a progressive bias and conservatives are a minority.
Also, I agree with @Vimivoa@lemmy.basedcount.com, your overuse of the word “nazi” is extremely disrespectful and shows how uneducated you are. If you had the slightest clue of what that word means I’m sure you wouldn’t use it so lightly.
And lastly,
but that’s not the same as admins banning users from reddit.
I’m friends with several moderators (or ex moderators, after they deleted their Reddit accounts and moved here) from r/PCM. They’ll be able to confirm that back on Reddit they were being constantly messaged by Reddit’s “Anti Evil Operations” (the admins) about stuff that they should have removed or that was allegedly breaking the Reddit TOS. And no, it wasn’t nazi shit, in most cases it was perfectly harmless edgy humour.
