Why is this sub just CBC news stories? Does a bot add them all? They are mostly empty with no comments. Makes for a strange feed.

Edit: I think I just need to figure out which way to sort my feed. Sorting by hot gives me almost all CBC.

Edit 2: CBC is great. I am commenting on the state of c/Canada, not the quality of CBC

      Of course…I caught a ban from r/onguardforthee for hurting some poor snowflake’s delicate feelz. I’m as left as you can get socially. I can understand why the neo-fascist bot herders that rule r/canada would want me gone but I just can’t be part of a sub where it’s all rainbows and unicorns so no one feels bad.

        We need more rainbows and unicorns in this world. I hope the ugly that is reddit doesn’t proliferate too easily and too widely.

          Yes, it would be nice if we could have a community where civilized discussions based in reality could happen where everyone expressed their onions and everyone listened. r/canada had devolved into one group of people trying to bring a bit of truth and reality to the discussion and another shitting in their hand and throwing it at people while screaming lies and propaganda backed up by bots that downvoted anything that didn’t agree with the echo bunker.

            Mods in the sub and reddit proper side with the propagandist chaos actors every time. It’s why I’m happily here on Lemmy.

              I hear that. I staked out a few communities that I want to be a member of here on Lemmy so that they would have reasonable (in my estimation) moderation. Let’s home that I don’t ban myself.
