That strikes me as far more a function of being on reddit. There are no conservatives on reddit and from my own interactions with the people on r/conservative, I can assure you that they are not in fact what they say they are. You may as well go to Weibo looking to advocate against the repressive CCP regime, or you can try it a bit closer to home and advocate for free speech on reddit. Same outcome.
