“Coordinated effort among non network news outlets to silence conservatives completely.”

Not to worry, in maybe 3 months Trump might appoint a blue ribbon committee to collectively harrumph about it. Problem solved.

I used to worry about a civil war started by the left.

Now I wonder if it is us who will have to start to fight back.

Not until after the election.....Pelosi and the left would be very happy to see that before the election.

" . . . including "The_Donald," a popular community supportive of President Donald Trump, where users often shared racist, misogynistic, homophobic and conspiracy content."

So leftist trolls can flood any conservative website with that kind of content and get them banned.

This is the same NYC outfit (Advance Publications) that owns many of the local newspapers and news outlets that recently and conveniently eliminated the ability of Americans to comment and opine on how local news is reported. Outlets like Pennlive, MLonline, etc see listing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Advance_subsidiaries.

They take away your ability to critique and discuss the media owned by the few but brainwashing the many. They are taking away your right to free speech, and most of them politically are way left and are the same. This is why you must fear the left, and the element most pervasive in controlling media and your right to free speech and your right of self defense. They want this country for themselves as was done in Germany etc.

And it just happens that the only ones that “promote hate” in their minds are ones Reddit disagrees with politically. In leftwing Newspeak, hate = opposing political ideas.

The leftists believe so little in the correctness of their views that they think the only way they can win is by silencing and slandering anyone who disagrees with them.

Since the site clearly censors political speech and tries to interfere in elections, Reddit needs to be regulated as a political organization or at least the same as the press with the same liabilities. We’ve put up with too many double standards and violations of the First Amendment already.

"The_Donald," a popular community supportive of President Donald Trump, where users often shared racist, misogynistic, homophobic and conspiracy content.

What really set the leftists off about The Donald was that so many of its members were young, minority, and/or gay, and none of them cared for dishonest political correctness or censorship, the backbone of modern leftism.

It looks like Reddit and CBS can hate all they want, but the people they hate can’t hate back.

Are they banning any subreddits from the hate-fest that represents the Left?

Define “Hate”.

Is Hate against the Law? No.

If it was, the Democrat Party could not exist.

This entire Election is based on Liberal Hatred of POTUS Trump and his Supporters. Not disagreement, not Policy differences, pure Hatred that most of them could not begin to explain in a rational manner if tasked to do so.

A former Bama player was fired from the Edmonton Eskimos or something (Canadian football league) for saying on Twitter its not right for a man to lay with a man or a woman to lie with a woman. Team called that hate speech. He’s black.
