why is RI/providence sub reddit become so hostile to opposing views.

Submitted by Indy_420 t3_10qblnl in RhodeIsland

Its seems to me if you don't agree with the woke narrative and have opposing views, you get banned, or your comment gets deleted. Why the censorship, are the admins and redditors so weak minded they resort to censoring instead of debating.?

The bubble being created on here isnt what reddit was about 10 years ago. But has devolved into a liberal echo chamber of virtue signaling, and woke ideology that is reminiscent of the hard right conservatives of the 90s.

What do you all think?

You said something racist/homophobic/xenophobic, didn’t you?

That seems like a question for the moderators or admins, not the users. All we can do is downvote, not delete or ban.

That said, I find that often times people on the internet seem to want to inject their "anti" ideology into every conversation. If the thread is actually about a topic pertaining to "woke" topics or politics, I think you should express yourself, but don't expect people to agree with you. But if it's a thread that is unrelated to those topics and you bring them up every time, in every conversation, I wouldn't be surprised if the moderators ban you as someone who just injects ideological spam into every thread.

Oh no you poor conservatives! I’m sorry the mods and people here are bullying you! If you want I’d be happy to buy you some Kleenex.

Looking at your post history, I’m assuming you said something inappropriate on the thread about Rev. Donnie Anderson and violated rule #2 of this sub.

I know you were not asking me, but honestly I used to see it as being aware of the world outside of my own personal experiences. Edit - I found it quite helpful for me to put further context on why something is the way it is, or someone feels the way they feel (even if I disagree with it).

Now it's just used as a negative term and has no real meaning when used, which is unfortunate.

If you can provide a link to a comment on a profile it would allow us to form an opinion based on something.

I mean what republicans ridicule as “woke” is actually kindness and inclusivity imho.

Lol... it's not an RI thing. It's a country thing, and it's not just liberals who act this way.

Reddit as a whole has this problem. Its an echo chamber for weak minds. How many times a week do you see "control the means of production" or "landlords evil" statements. You really can't have a discussion on most topics here as the people are incapable. They will even inject their political thoughts into non political statements for some reason. And their behavior reflects who they really are as people.

Go ahead, try to to start a discussion on an actual issue. Either the Mods will kill it or the response will be completely predictable. This is not the place for clear minded or useful discussions, just rhetoric. Read though the comments already present here and this is obvious.

It 100% is a liberal echo chamber. But of course all the liberals here won’t admit that. Anybody not clouded by bias knows it. It’s amazing how the people who make their whole identity about being tolerant of other viewpoints are so hostile towards other viewpoints lol
