A reddit user posted screenshots of a gas giant that were beautifully adorned with the colors of the trans flag.
This attracted bigots with their agenda to disrupt the community discussion and the mods shut it down by locking the post.
So the poster created a second one with more photos as a symbolic gesture that the message was simply about pretty planets that they felt represented them-
It too, was locked.
I made a post there proclaiming that I am leaving until I see the mods replaced with those that will not give in to bigotry, and I linked to this community with the hope that people can find a new home here.
Sooooo… welcome new friends!
Reddit is so big that it encapsulates everyone. You’ll find far left. You’ll find far right. You’ll find a few people who somehow missed the joke, and think birds not being real is an actual conspiracy.
My point is, you can’t say “reddit is _____”, because they have 500 million monthly users.
Even Lemmy, which is a fraction of the size, has far right people here.
