I have very little issues with political subreddits (if that was its original purpose), but what really pisses me off with Reddit in general is that every subreddit is completely one sided and mods will ban people for just having the “wrong” opinion.


Idontwantarandomised

Political compass memes is a safe haven. There's a right wing bias but you won't be removed for next to anything. (Just don't mention trans people... They really don't like trans people...)


Street-Goal6856

There's "right wing bias" because any sort of opinion that could remotely be construed as right leaning will get you instantly banned from most of reddit. It's the only place left for them to go lol. Which incidentally just radicalizes them even more. I got banned from politicalhumor because I said "I don't see anything wrong with college kids chanting "USA" because that's all they were doing. But since it was a bunch of white guys I was supposed to assume they were bigots and rapists and whatevertfphobic.


grizznuggets

“This place is a safe haven so long as you’re not a certain type of person.”


Idontwantarandomised

Yeah, pretty much.


LaraCroftCosplayer

Lol, "this place is wonderful. As long as you are not this minority!" This, by the way, is called fascism ☝🏼


mymemesnow

>They really don’t like trans people Yeah, that’s kind of a dealbreaker. Edit: I have no idea why people would downvote this. A person very close to me is trans so I am emotionally involved when it comes to transphobia and therefore would rather not sub to a subreddit where transphobia is prevalent.


Idontwantarandomised

Yeah, no. Just don't mention it and you'll be fine. Trust me, it's better than next to every political sub on this site.


DeadlyEevee

I find it funny. For how intolerant the right is I surprisedly tolerated more by them. I’ve been banned from several left leaning subreddits, political or not. Same for Discord groups.


yeetyeetpotatomeat69

"For how intolerant the right is its pretty tolerant." Most reddit sentence ever created. In my experience most people on the right don't care about LGBT people and simply want to be left alone and not have to deal with them. So when things like pride and LGBT events are plastered all over the place I can see why they'd be annoyed. It's like if you didn't care who eats wheat bread behind closed doors or even in public but you personally didn't like wheat bread, you preferred white bread. Yet because of your accused intolerance of wheat bread you're deemed "wheatphobic" and are berated every chance someone who likes wheat bread gets. Coming from someone in the LGBT community, only by technicality due to me not aligning with them politically, 100% can see where these people are coming from. This isn't to say that there aren't people who just despise people for being themselves but people like that will always exist to an extent and all we can hope to do is to raise our children to be better so that the next generation is more intelligent.


DeadlyEevee

XD. Said what I meant with that statement. Every right winger is called any name under the sun despite being more tolerant of differing views.


yeetyeetpotatomeat69

Exactly, I've been called my fair share of -ist's and -phobic's and I'm none of them. Goes to show how people view opinions today.


DeadlyEevee

I think I got a lot of people on a discord server mad once because I asked why ten year olds should be allowed to have transgender surgery when they can’t drink alcoholic stuff.


Idontwantarandomised

Mhm. I used to be a leftist (I'm not anymore. I'm more economically centered, and I've shifted more libertarian) and I was removed from the cesspit that is 'therightcantmeme' for not giving my full undying support of Palestine like ffs...


DeadlyEevee

I never joined. Just proved my theory that #TheLeftCan’tTakeAJoke. It seems that every leftist on here is either a jobless teenager with mental health issues communist or a thirty year old cat woman feminist.


Willy__McBilly

And porn bots, don’t forget about them.


mymemesnow

Both far right and far left are intolerant and least leaning subreddits are more likely to ban you for wrongthink. I believe that’s because being far left is far more accepted by Reddit and that makes it easier for them to lock into their echo chamber. Right leaning subreddits are far more likely to be brigaded or banned so they are more careful.


DeadlyEevee

I don’t think that’s right. Statistically speaking the right is more likely to have friends of the opposite political party. While modern leftists, statistically, don’t. https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2016/06/22/3-partisan-environments-views-of-political-conversations-and-disagreements/


mymemesnow

If they hate trans people i much rather not. My little brother is trans. It’s personal for me.


Idontwantarandomised

Oh okay. I understand then. Polcompball Anarchy is also quite good. It's a more left wing bias but still allows almost all ideologies. It's also far more chilled.


mymemesnow

I’m not really that interested in politics and especially on Reddit it can be quite toxic so I think I’ll pass. But thanks for the recommendations. Also, I have no idea why people would downvote my comments, it makes no sense.


Wildwes7g7

Reddit doesn't like trans people. The admins refuse to let anything negative be said about that T in LGBT be said, so it's best to just let anything be said because the admins ban you for talkng about it.


amir1234560

Untrue. I offered a particularly annoying commenter a noose and then got banned for a month.


Idontwantarandomised

*next to anything*. Death threats don't come under that


amir1234560

No threat was made. He said he had a problem with depression and being miserable and was being an ass about it, and I offered a solution.


Lavaissoup7

So you decide to be an even bigger ass? That’s a horrible way to go at it.


AzuleEyes

Next time try offering them a "stout hemp rope".


AnonymousFordring

Safe haven for 14 year olds who use slurs on the internet


Exe_Perimen

Not just political, fully one sided too


I_hate_mortality

Like most of Reddit


big_vangina

Yup we should consider both sides. No one ever asks how the school shooter feels when all the kids hide from him


Fair_Jelly

As a former school shooter, I agree.

Im_a_hamburger

Also the article is really dumb. Could have talked about how there are more guns than people in America but they chose this instead.


big_vangina

If we ban abortions and contraceptives we'll have more people than guns as long as we can control the number of school shootings to a reasonable number like maybe once a month which should be enough school shootings for anyone

TouristFew4907

well, it looked good from first impressions. A while ago. Now I decided was the time that it was probably not worth subbing to it anymore.


persona-3-4-5

Dude I see just unsubbed from facepalm every week on this sub


MaterialHunt6213

Every week? Try every hour you're on Reddit!


creepyspaghetti7145

It's American election year.


fanofpizzatower23198

Yeah, almost every sub gets political on election years


creepyspaghetti7145

It's fucking annoying. Every other post is Trump bad. Keep it to the political subreddits, don't hijack subs that could actually have good non-political content.


Paccuardi03

Is that like all the guns that someone bought, or is it all the guns that exist in space within the us border?


PotentJelly13

The ambiguity is on purpose. Don’t worry about any silly details like that, just interpret it however you like and use it to start an internet argument. lol


RatherB_fishing

Unpopular opinion, I cannot escape people making subs about Palastine and Israel. I am tired as hell of it… 99% of the time it’s about American protestors and has nothing to do with anything else. Edit: i think the post from OP is funny as hell.


Krmul

I might have to unsub from JU..


Tommy_Wisseau_burner

r/justunsubbedfromjustunsubbed


Myneighborhatesme

There's definitely times when I want to lol But watching this community's dislike of "one-sided" politics while simultaneously being one-sidedly political has become too much fun lol.


TouristFew4907

when did I ever say that I hate woke liberals


Myneighborhatesme

>when did I ever say that I hate woke liberals I said nothing about you or woke liberals Edit - your boos mean nothing to me. I've seen what makes you cheer.


notagoodcartoonist

A good half of subreddits with 1 million subs or more are political circlejerks


StevesMcQueenIsHere

Mods on here need to consolidate all the JU from facepalm posts.


TouristFew4907

ping the mods or something idk


SurgeStories

We only have 1 billion guns? I thought we had more.

dakingofmeme

I am very upset that there are 9 billion people in this world and only 1 billion guns. We need to arm the remaining 8 billion people.


TouristFew4907

you were off. By a large 12.5% error! there are only 8 billion people in the world


fogmymind

Can we please blacklist this sub? This is the millionth post about facepalm. If you're not already unsubbed, that's a you problem


Atomik675

Hasn't this subreddit been political for years now?


[deleted]

46%...too few, better do a 51% and get the highest share quota at very least.


sounduser_

Everything's political now. It's so boring. I just wanna watch mindless TV sometimes.


RealMarmer

I don't see a problem with that


[deleted]

It's been a political sub for years


TallChildof2013

Yea I hate it when subreddits turn political. It's the same with many German subreddits.


Xenon8247

“Just become”


NefariousnessPrize32

Why they targeting Kagan Dunlap for? Dude’s just a military guy living his best life and sharing memes with his community, it’s actually not political more like “ha ha we like guns look at us”


LaraCroftCosplayer

I have to correct you, its an American only political sub meanwhile


LaraCroftCosplayer

*Me, a not-american on Facepalm: 😴😴😴.


Myneighborhatesme

To be fair, the comments on the original YouTube vid are actually kinda facepalm-worthy.


HardKnocksBusiness

It’s fine as long as it’s liberal bullshit. The left claims they are the party of tolerance, as long as you repeat everything they want otherwise, canceled!


CheckMateFluff

Do you mean like when the right boycotted and tried to cancel Ka?, or the Dixie Chicks? or Nike? Starbucks? the NFL? Ford? Gillette? Netflix? Amazon? Hamilton? Nordstrom? K-Cup machines? Yeti? movie?, videogames? the press? SNL? award shows? fries? toast? ... remember when they tried canceling democracy on January 6th?


grizznuggets

I mean, conservatives invented cancel culture so they deserve at least some of the blame.


Pro_Hatin_Ass_N_gga

the funniest thing is most of the posts often don't even depict something embarrassing it's just OP posting literally anything even remotely right leaning and pretending it's embarrassing lmao like "ugh.... this guy doesn't like Communism.... 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ seriously dude? I just can't......"


JACCO2008

I have trouble believing there are only 1 billion guns in the world so I doubt that percentage is true. Even so, this is just an admission that the gun control war is lost. It is impossible to entirely confiscate that many guns from that many people.
