That's a very weak argument in my opinion.

How does the moderation in /r/conservatives, a subreddit for conservatives to discuss "from a distinctly conservative point of view", concern a liberal like yourself in any way?

This isn't a subreddit you need to participate in. I think it's more relevant how default subreddits or country subreddits are moderated in a similar way.

It concerns me insofar as the comment I was responding to, mentioned that participation in /r/conservative got him banned in another subreddit, while failing to mention the nature of /r/conservative as a heavily censored echo chamber.

The /r/conservative mods are pushing far-right and conspiracy theory positions, not textbook conservative ideology.

Even actual conservatives don’t like it. It’s like a propaganda operation where only approved think is allowed.
