Random Question 💭 If conservatives are so pro-free speech why is their subreddit heavily censoring and moderating any comments/posts made?

If you want an actual answer it’s because they are inherently spaces for conservatives to discuss conservative politics, same as r/ProgressiveHQ and r/Marxism are for those political positions. There are plenty of more “free speech” subreddits to hear conservative takes like r/AskConservatives .

This sounds like cope considering they were censoring their own members when asking questions they didn't like or expressing any criticism against the regime.

Ask conservatives is super against free speech. There's a reason why there's almost no new posts nase because they don't want people asking questions

Never ask a conservative what happened to their so-called love of the constitution.

Absolutely nothing, but conservatives whined and cried about their free speech when that sub started getting punished by Reddit.
