    Fuck this. MoreMoreTankieChapo is going to follow too.

    What hate did they even promote??

    Edit: I’m expecting MTC and MMTC to subscribe on here so to welcome my comrades (of which I am):

    • fuck slave owners, John Brown was right to execute them.
    • fuck the bourgeoisie, ain’t no war but the class war.
    • it is good to doxx fascists. Don’t want to be a target? Stop being a fascist.
    • Reddit admins are spineless college kids. Fucking ban the fascists from your site, nobody wants them anyway. And leave the communists alone because at least we’re not organising deadly protests on your fucking website!
    • I am personally hoping that I get to fuck up a fascist once in my life. Beat him senseless and maybe reorder the neurons in his brain so they reconnect correctly this time. I would kill a fascist if it meant protecting my comrades.
    • I don’t know what other things too spicy for Reddit I can add!

    Lemmy is based.

      If I had to guess (and reddit admins don’t need a reason) it was either the “hate” against police (CTH mods before quarantine noted removal of reddit rule abiding posts that were anti-police and contained no violent language by the reddit admins among other removals) who the reddit admins are apparently massive bootlickers for (rumors of cops infiltrating and running top subreddits may not just be rumors). Or maybe the landlord stuff or if they wanted to go with the current political climate they can just say denying China has murdered elevenity billion Muslims in Xinjiang is in fact hate speech and on par with denial of the very real holocaust.

        We’re not 100% sure, could be “uyghur genocide” denial, or just having chapo in the name and being associated with it.

        I do agree that with the amount of copaganda that we see, at the very least, most of the biggest subreddit mods turn a blind eye to it. Half of /r/upliftingnews 's (IE /r/latestagedystopia) top posts are just blatant copaganda.

          There is no way to be 100% sure. I didn’t see the ban message actually states hate at first so I assumed it was a ban evasion ban but it isn’t, still I’d bet that contributed to it. We’ll know for sure soon if the admins just start axing every left sub that defies the US state dept propaganda on whatever nonsense they (or more importantly their media partners as they’re fairly careful, it’s the media that says in a definitive tone that China is committing genocide) have conjured up.

          It’s enough to make me want for there to be retaliatory brigades against reddit if they do that. Most communists on reddit are fairly happy to just sit in our own subs and commiserate while some individuals occasionally venture out to the front-page subs (where surely we’re outnumbered) to opine on things alongside everyone from open fascists to liberals and often get downvoted for our troubles. But if they go after all our spaces. Well I swear I’m already seeing a rise in reactionary thought on reddit since CTH’s banning, I really do think they got rid of some natural anti-bodies and counterbalances to the reactionary forces they’re trying to keep hidden from advertisers, they’ve disrupted the homeostasis.

    Oh wait we can go mask off here. Gusanos are bastards and should be thankful of Castro’s mercy.

    Such good times there. Too bad about the ultra mods, to them I say… Xi wins in the end!

    And yes to those saying the people from CTH migrating there contributed. I would bet on it. Given they banned CTH2 on the same day as CTH it likely wasn’t high on their radar until their automated tools showed large numbers of users from the banned sub CTH migrating there. Having Chapo in the name probably didn’t help. I would never make another leftist sub with chapo in the name of it on reddit because that’s going to sooner or later get them on you.

    Also anyone else experiencing the alleged symptoms of a new kind of shadowban on reddit? Lots of people claiming their upvotes and downvotes no longer register after having been active on CTH. It appears to be happening to me when I view things I’ve upvoted in another private browser instance. My hypothesis was it was either a new form of shadowban wielded to silence the left entirely on reddit or that it was a still devious but temporary measure but in place to prevent any kind of brigading actions by upset CTH users (and for all I know by upset users of other banned subs that were reactionary although I have no evidence for this) and would fall off over time.
