If those were the ideals, the Kimmel and Colbert firings never would’ve happened.

Since when do conservatives follow conservative ideals of freedom?
That’s a reason why it won’t work - see Reddit’s r/Conservative which lists every post as “approved speech only” aka “flaired users only”.

and the mods are associated with Russia too, not surprising why its the most repressive sub,(after the others got banned years ago)

You don’t hear them talk about free speech constantly? You don’t see conservative platforms popping up every week? Truth Social anyone?

Talking and actually sticking with those ideals are totally different things. What they do is called selective enforcement.
Maybe you should try joining that instance and see how far the “conservative freedom” goes?

Right, but we weren’t talking about sticking to the ideals, we were talking about the ideals themselves.

thats why they also favor discord too, have thier own echo chamber, and allow adminstrative controls like with facebook, and not having something like reddit ban system hovering over thier shoulders, plus propaganda mods that keep them from speaking out of line(like with r/conservatives)
