I left r/canada even before I left reddit. The final straw was when I saw links to a report from Citizen Lab, a very respectable Canadian research group at U of T, about a foreign government interfering in Canadian affairs, getting deleted for not being "relevant to Canada."
I got banned for archiving a conservative politicians leadership campaign website and publishing it when they started telling lies about their policy positions.
'Not relevant'
My final ban came when I pointed out a known white supremacist was saying racist stuff. They temp banned me, a mod (a different one, the white supremacist one) challenged me to explain it, and then fully banned me when I didn't reply, which I couldn't do... Because they banned me.
On that subreddit, racist shit was okay but calling something racist was not.
The world in microcosm
yup. I’ve seen it too.
How dare you not salute us when we tied your hands behind your back!
