I’m kinda confused by this.
You’re saying that you look explicitly for things that conform to your political views, comment things with your political views, then get banned?
Do you have a link to an example?

r/politics is known for leaning heavily Left. There are a bunch of new subreddits popping up like r/inthenews that if you comment or post anything not leaning Left OR if you are a member of r/Conservative then you will be banned. If you try to use a separate account to bypass the ban then both accounts will be automatically banned by Reddit for 7 days. There is no appeal.
I was banned from r/Damnthatsinteresting, for example, because they said r/Conservative supports abortion. I have never seen that. It’s mostly just Trump leaning articles.
Even if you run across a “news” subreddit and comment on something that doesn’t seem Left, you will get banned right now. It’s very toxic.
