Is anyone else noticing an uptick in far-right content and Russian propaganda on reddit lately?

To me it almost seems like reddit has started pushing it.

    I find the opposite… I find their content moderation has become so f****** horrible and extremely biased view towards the left side of the political / social spectrum… Half the reason why I’ve switched over to Lemmy cuz it at least promote some form of open dialogue

      “open dialogue”? I’m gonna have to assume you mean some instances will censor you for criticizing Russia, because the right-wing translation of “free speech” is “when my speech is free and yours isn’t”.

        I don’t know, I just have never really experienced censorship when criticizing anything on the right wing. Perhaps my issues with reddit is not the content itself as much as it is the moderators and their attempts to suppress open dialogue - we may be on the same wave length and agreement in regards to allowing criticism openly, I just think you should also consider that it’s not just happening on critics against “the right wing”.

          There’s plenty of dialogue suppression, what I’m saying it that I suspect it’s suppressing the dialogue you want suppressed.

      not true one bit, its the opposite now. it leans heavily right wing on most subs now, it just bans and or removes most criticism against right wing sources. update your info being commenting.
