I'm surprised r/drama made it this long. It feels like someone on the admin team has a soft spot for them.

r/politicalcompassmemes gets away with a surprising amount of stuff because all quadrants are welcome, if you devoted a sub to the authright/authcenter posts I think it would get banned.

r/conspiracy questions the mainstream COVID narrative, I know the other social media sites have been banning people for disagreeing with WHO/CDC recommendations. We'll see if Reddit keeps a spine on that.

I don't THINK r/stupidpol will get banned, but the radlibs hate it enough that I'm sure someone will try to take it down.

I pray to god everyday r/PCM won't get banned

I love r/drama. I mean, there's r/subredditdrama but r/drama is just on another level. Banning them is gonna be the biggest drama. XD

I'm surprised r/conservative is still there.

I think it's only there for plausible deniability. Every time I bring up reddit censoring conservatives, the rebuttal is "well uhh r/conservative is still there!"

Redditors must feel an itch every time they see a view that disagrees with their own.

SocialJusticeInAction for sure

Any sub that asks uncomfortable questions about gender identity theory.

I think they might just play whack-a-mole with people trying to make replacement subs for what is banned. Could be wrong, which is why I have started to pay my dues here.

If the election tightens and/or Trump wins, then I could see a new wave of hysteria.

    Wow, that's terrible. It seems like the user purge is the bigger deal.

    /anarcho_capitalism goes down for sure. Probably any rightwing economics sub because "capitalism is hate speech"

    ancaps are mostly deep state, they're not going anywhere. They exist to confuse people in to supporting billionaires and despots

    I think they're done. They did 1000 within in an hour for a reason. They wanted to do it all at once, like ripping off a bandaid. That's how they've done it in the past too. That minimizes the amount of resistance the admins have to deal with as they perform the bans, and they know it.

    I don't think they will do a trickle-ban system of a few every day. I think they've learned that's a bad idea. So instead I expect to see every 3 months, another 2000 subreddits banned. Something like that.

    That theory aligns with the expectation that October, the month before US election, will be the biggest Purge of all, except it won't be the "edgy" subs, but just everything on the right, with 1 or 2 leftist subs added in for deniability.

    I'm actually surprised it wasn't.

    /r/JordanPeterson at some point I suspect.

    I just want to point out a little sub with no widespread recognition or attention called /r/hatecrimehoaxes that was banned in the mass banwave. Now there were certainly individual commenters who were saying dumb racist shit but overall the sub was just pointing out the actual hoaxes like Jussie Smollet and the nascar guy and so many others. The banning of that sub is what made me jump ship, since there's clearly some iffy shit going on when reddit wants to sweep facts under the rug when they question the prevailing narrative. Fuck reddit for doing that.
