No, it means that Reddit has a left leaning bias.
- H99189 9y agoI think left "leaning" is a bit understated.
- dsfyu404ed 9y agoIs there an upper bound on "leaning"?
- H99189 9y agoLeaning just implies that they aren't completely fallen over to one side, which I think is very much the case.
- NaliSauce 9y agoMaybe to give a concrete example: When /r/anarchism (left leaning sub about anarchism, antifa, communism, ...) mods refused to enforce reddit's rules relating to the incitement to violence, reddit only removed the mods in question instead of closing the sub. When /r/physical_removal (right leaning sub about pinochet 'memes') mods refused to enforce reddit's rules relating to the incitement to violence, the sub was removed. When /r/nazi (third position leaning sub about national socialism) - well, I don't actually know whether the mods there refused to enforce reddit's rules. It's been removed.
- s73ver_ 9y ago/r/nazi was removed because it promoted Nazism.
