that was prior to trumps 1st term, remember the subreddit apocalypse they started banning alot of subs that were “problematic”, it was just placating the GOP and trump who are obsessed with online censorhsip at a time, which was convenient distraction from thier “1st tax cuts”. thats when people were getting significant amount of bans around that time. i was there when r/conspiracy wasnt even political, just your usual conspiracies that have been talked about, that doesnt involved trump, or dems.

before the anti-vax madness of covid, that sub pre-pandemic allowed you to somewhat convince people who are hesitant of vaccines.
