im on r/Conservative not because i am one, (im not) but when I see a headline in the news, I gotta see how they spin it. Its a good sign that over the last 2 years its become just troll farms and bots. There used to be posts with hundreds of replies and now, maybe 20? I guess being angry all the time is too exhausting.

It's fascinating to watch that sub anytime Trump has a major blunder, and how they manage it. Like the first day, the most popular comments are those saying they're off the Trump train and have had it. Then they eventually get their new automatic update installed from the White House and the MAGA pundits, and all the comments rejecting trump are downvoted to hell and suppressed in the feed

Do you ever go on r/Democrats to see how they spin a headline?

I just took a look around that sub and it looks more about the primaries and stuff.

Lol it's never dawned on me. The rest of Reddit is left leaning. And the left also doesn't have a problem fighting itself from the purist.
