What happened to WJC discussion here?

Those are two different issues.

A Russian player playing on an NHL team doesn't inherently have any nationalism unless they go out of their way to make it an issue.

A Russian team is literally representing the nation. Imagine how off-putting it'd be if Russia won the tournament this year...

about as off-putting as US win in 2004

I find the upvote/downvote model of ranking threads and comments quite good in principle. I do enjoy some subreddits, none sports-related, which are well moderated with balanced viewpoints in the comments.

Problem is when the "community" & mods are highly biased, opinionated, and sometimes on the young/ignorant side. It is worse on Instagram.

storytime:

I've been blocked/banned on several platforms for posting facts which disturb the hivemind (or echo chamber). Best was probably being banned for "misinformation" from r/news for stating the Canadian Trucker Convoy was very large in response to a biased and wrong News article downplaying it's size and significance early on. I was later un-banned without comment, but unfollowed anyways.​

That’s the problem w reddit. if you don’t go along with the “current thing” or step outside the mainstream narrative, your account won’t last long. I swear nobody on that site has had an original thought.
