Paul McCartney’s official Reddit account seems to have been banned. The account, u/paulmccartney, had just dropped a set of photos and videos from the first night of his shows at the Fonda Theatre. It went straight into the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit. Then, not long after, the whole thing disappeared.

Man. Reddit has really just become a joke.

It's so bad it almost seems intentional.

They're making money by doing it. Conservatives monetize better.

...Reddit is the opposite of Republican. The people there are aggressively far left. It is hard to believe that it's not an artificially enforced echo chamber.

The problem with echo chambers is that they are politically sterile. By aggressively forcing Republicans and moderates off the platform, we lose the ability to influence their stances and opinions. It becomes a circle jerk.

Reddit mods (actual mods not subreddit mods) are a bunch of filthy pedophiles.
