It would probably follow the Reddit model that began in 2018. Maybe Lemmy.today is the first example of this.

  1. Admins ask members left of liberalism to keep the conversation in the centre.
  2. Rules are no longer enforced and are watered down.
  3. Frivolous bans.
  4. Removal of moderators.
  5. Defederation from other instances.
  6. Ads introduced in the sidebar and posts.

Any group that gives any validity to "right of center" takes (basically, amoral and self-serving takes, usually fully sociopathic as well) and doesn't ask the member to explain themselves before giving them a timeout so they can reassess before polluting the space again with their nonsense in the best of cases/banning them forever if the person just doubles down will always be at risk of going full fash/antihuman.

And behind all of this is, of course, the well-known whimsical Western attitude towards life, where everything is a "matter of perspective", "relative" and fundamentally uncertain, right and wrong included. Who can take a stand in earnest in these communities against antihuman nonsense when too many amoral and unserious beings will either tolerate or fully support it, with their inversed values and all? Oh well.

A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

  1. Be civil and act in good faith.
  2. No trolling.
