              The r/conservative mods got my main account global banned for using the “report misinformation” button too much. That sub used to have good quality textposts but when the trump cult took over, it changed to nonstop ragebait/lies/propaganda news articles. And on slow news days you’d see articles like “Throwback: Dont forget that Obama did X six years ago” to keep the people furious 7 days a week

Lol, almost had the same happen to me but it was that stupid anti-vax sub.

So you were just a normal anti-vaxer before the crazies came in?

Fuck no lmao, I guess I put that poorly. They banned me from commenting real quick because I was calling everyone on their bullshit. Then it was reporting me for reporting them too much 🙄
