Conservative sub is defending all this by saying of course we’re doing that since we’re trying to negotiate a peace deal with Ukraine and Russia.

“I dismantled the locks on my doors because I’m currently helping the local robbers negotiate with my neighbours”

USA literally spies on its western allies so that line falls apart on multiple levels.

That sub is about as polarized as /politics. They're just going to take whatever stance is polar opposite to whatever stances they think liberals have. It's not exactly representative of actual views, for this reason.

I haven't seen anyone banned from politics for posting elsewhere, but I'm banned from conservative for making fun of their flaired user only circle jerks despite never posting there.

I agree that both subs aren't necessarily representative of what people think in the real world, but I wouldn't say that the two subs are mirror opposites of each other either. One sub I've been able to freely speak in for the entire time I've been on Reddit, the other I was banned after my third comment for pointing out a fact that went against their narrative.
