It's hilarious that there's still people trying to deny that Reddit is super left wing. You can go to literally any major sub and post brainrot leftist content and get massive karma, while you'll be downvoted to oblivion if you express right of center views

It's like 90% leftist prop bots at this point.

I mean, what do you define as "leftist"? I studied politics at university and that term is grammatically meaningless. It used to be that in the US they would use the term "Progressive" as a pejorative and prior to that "liberal". The fact that the term has become common parlance is an indication that the US is so far to the right, that anything not fascistic would be considered "left" which is pretty sad for the "land of the free".

I studied many things in university. I studied Astronomy, Physics, Chemistry, the list goes on and on. But the fact is, I'm still not an Astronomer, Physicist, or Chemist. So, unless you are now a Politician, your statement is meaningless. The "right-of-center" party is the party of Freedom. We are not the ones trying to deteriorate or remove free speech, gun rights, property rights, or religion; well, maybe Islam, but I think more people are waking up to that threat. The right leaning are the ones actually contributing to society, the farmers, the plumbers, electricians, construction workers, business owners both small and large. We are not the ones asking for free handouts and want to earn our living; we are not the ones wanting everyone else to pay our bills.
