The disconnect here is that you are either ignoring what goes on in these forums or actually don't know. They are a constant barrage of proganda with a steady stream of new people to hate and immediate bans for anyone who questions if something isn't right or if people are going too far. There is a reason that there is now far more right wing terrorism in the west than from any other group. If you think this is just about 'political opinions' then you are misinformed or severely downplaying the reality of what is going on. And once again, this is just a forum that isn't going to be linked to internally as much. It wasn't even banned. Why would Reddit activly promote a forum like this? They should have done it a long time ago.

> The disconnect here is that you are either ignoring what goes on in these forums or actually don't know. My claim is exactly that the situation is as bad as it is exactly for this reason! You can argue this way with everything, if you let a problem fester enough it become easier and easier to claim there is no solution. > There is a reason that there is now far more right wing terrorism in the west than from any other group. On the other hand Antifa, who routinely attack minorities and passerby, is often heralded as the defender of justice. The difference in banning policies for the left and the right is obvious and with non trivial effects. Honestly I am more worried about how mainstream media is fueling this point of view and turning a blind eye to people calling for political violence. I do not think I will be able to better communicate my point. There are many factor at play and I must admit that I am not good enough to adequately order them into a coherent argument with enough evidences. On this topic I rather trust Tim Pool, he is a journalist that often cover this kind of topics. Here is a random video from some months ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4_6qSv0NRU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4_6qSv0NRU If you care to send me a link to kind of resources that can help me see your point I promise to take a look :)

  > On the other hand Antifa, who routinely attack minorities and passerby, is often heralded as the defender of justice. This is complete garbage and right-wing propaganda. Tell me the last time anyone associated with that movement was involved in a violent gun massacre involving actual deaths. There is absolutely no point of comparison. Right-wing extremism fueled by these forums is an actual threat to the lives of many people. There is no equivalent on the "other side".

Right-wing extremism fueled by these forums is an actual threat to the lives of many people. There is no equivalent on the "other side". Yes it is terrible, I hope that those trying to stop those despicable and reprehensible people have all the resource they need. Yet it is not a justification to inflate everything to the right of extreme left as "killing people". The media bias in this regard is undeniable. But seriously, I do not have the ability to continue this conversation without pulling out topics I would rather not talk about. Here is another video from Tim Pool on project Veritas and media bias: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT2yTSet_1Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT2yTSet_1Y And seriously, if you link me some stuff that explain your position (or why mine is wrong) more in depth I will earnestly read/watch it.
