r/india Mods insta-ban any pro-BJP/pro-India/pro-conservative commenters. Now, THAT is fascism.

Check out r/indiaspeaks where dissenting opinions are not banned.



r/india is just cesspool. They do not care about free speech or liberty; they just want to control the narrative. The comments section is a shit show. It's hard to find a decent comment. It's all gomutra/sanghi/fascist/chaddi. At least on the other Indiaverse subs, we see some decent discussion. The best debates on CAA are on r/IndiaSpeaks. It's pro-BJP, but you can still criticize them there. And a lot of randians have found an outlet there.


Having spent more than 10 years on r/India, it is saddening to see it in its current form. An outright ban of people with a difference of opinion has taken r/India to a whole new level of bigotry.


Are you just jumping around this thread copy/pasting the same talking points?

For what it's worth, someone getting banned from the comments section of an online forum run by a for-profit company is not fascism – it's not in the same ballpark, not in the same league.
