An eco chamber is all they want. The karma system on Reddit is designed to stifle speech and debate of opposing views in my opinion. You can create an eco chamber of the same opinions and then create the groupthink mindset of upvote everything I like and downvote everything I don’t thus hiding uncomfortable comments from view because of mass downvoting. Terrible design choice by Reddit but also deliberate.

I always found that only the large subs suck and the smaller ones work very well, as long as theyre not moderated to death. For example I was subbed to /r/climateskeptics and had plenty of great discussions over the years.

But then all the social media giants committed seppuku to fight Trump's re-election.

Reddit reminds me of Star track the borg, everyone must think alike.

Yeah what's with that? I like confirmation bias as much as the next ape, but to only hear a certain accepted narrative? That's boring.

A lot of the reddit users are bots.

In the guise of fighting "homophobia."

Edit: it didn't get me but I still think this is terrible.

Often TRAs will use "homophobia" to mean "transphobia" when the latter won't score rhetorical points. For example, r/TiA is more-or-less gay friendly but pretty anti-TRA, and there is currently some guy on r/AHS trying to get people riled up about "homophiobia" on r/TiA.

Thanks, I was wondering about that. Reddit doesn't seem to have any real homophobia I've ever seen.

Those fucking TRAs are a plague.

Maybe its the dickhead that banned me from nextfuckinglevel and a few other subs i rarely used to comment in because he got offended by me saying men can never be women in trueoffmychest.

Nothing says pathetic as banning someone for a 2 month old post saying "hey that's cool!" cause your feefees are hurt

Redit mods are just powerhungry sycophants who have mini god-complex

Reddit makes me money.

wow, what a load of context and information!

I figured the title and image pretty well summed it up, it wasn't what was being discussed or what was said that was important, it's the activist moderation.

it didnt at all. i have no idea wtf youre even getting at. maybe figure that about before posting a thread?

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

It's pretty obvious if you're familiar with reddit. Mods sometimes decide people need to be deplatformed to "stop hate" but usually they're banning people for jokes and/or different opinions under the guise of banning homo/trans/etc -phobic people. And in this case these so-called "homophobes" can't appeal, they can't even explain themselves.

maybe figure that about before posting a thread

Most people understood the post.
