    The community (and sometimes mods) have decided that certain topics/viewpoints are not to be joked about and dissention will not be tolerated.

    Bad takes get downvotes. More at 11.

      If you can’t see that this place is an echo-chamber, then not much I say can convince you. But, knowing this is futile, I’ll elaborate.

      All the top voted political takes were pro-Biden staying in the race and now are pro Harris taking the nomination. Dissenting opinions are often downvoted. Even in this community, you are only allowed to make fun of Republicans. Even lightly making fun of the left will be downvoted (and I do mean lightly… I am on the left myself).

        So yeah, no silencing, no banning, no removals, just whining that you got booed for a shit-take.

            Tell me, where is this magical place on the old internet where you used to be able to post unpopular opinions but somehow not get downvoted or told off?
