Yeah, you know those bastions of Communism known as Fox News, The Hill, Breitbart, Conservative Review, Military.com, Right Wing Watch, The Daily Caller, The Federalist, TheBlaze, CATO Institute, The Heritage Foundation, and all those other left-wing news outlets on the whitelist.
"Left of Lenin" get out of here with that nonsense.
- sparkie 8y agoJust looked in "new", and every one of those you've listed which are there are downvoted to zero. Care to prove my point further?
- freehunter 8y agoJust because they're not popular doesn't mean they're not on the whitelist. Care to move the goalposts further?
- sparkie 8y agoWell, my original comment was making a point that r/politics has become exactly what Digg became. A cesspit of bury brigades with a political aim. I wasn't entirely sure what was/wasn't on their whitelist because I don't waste my time in that cesspit. I'd be willing to bet money that they're not just "unpopular", but that there's a functional army of bots equipped to down-vote those domains automatically. It doesn't matter anyway. It's not like somebody expecting a nonpartisan commentary will bother going to r/politics anyway. Anyone can clearly see it is full of only left opinions, and anything remotely right-leaning is heavily downvoted.
- Noos 8y agoYou're right, pretty much everyone knows r/politics is too left for most leftists, but people will defend to the death that it is balanced because only conservatives can be unbalanced; everyone else is a "centrist." Though this forum is getting it's own tropes. Good luck being pro-copyright, not entirely convinced the war on drugs is a massive failure, and a person who likes living in the suburbs and owning a car.
