It's like why even bother commenting? "True Reddit" my ass. I guess it is "true reddit" in the sense that it's controlled by shills and censored to hell. I assume I'll be banned from the sub within the hour, once the mods notice my comments.

Just another DNC-shill controlled subreddit like the rest of reddit.

What I'm saying even backs up the point made in the article itself. Reddit is an absolute dumpster fire.

And that's exactly what every reactionary has said to me, literally every single time I've ended a discussion due to intransigence. I could set my watch to it. It's fucking boring.

They know how to shoot around the facts.
And then retreat.

Yeah when they just accuse the "way" you're saying something, or they just go for character assassination stuff (like looking through post history to find past posts that they can use to argue you're a "bad guy") then you know they've lost the argument. They have no logical rebuttal so they just resort to emotional smears. Their emotions literally won't let them think, it's pretty sad tbh, I feel pity for them. But the fact they censor my opinion, stated clearly and rationally, is the real problem.

And that's why we have the Pyramid of Debate at Saidit.

Seriously, posting here has helped me a lot in arguing on other sites. I can point out when other people aren't arguing, and make my points well. I used to get angry when I got ad hominem attacks from them, but now I just smile because that means they don't have any arguments. Because if they did, they'd be using them.

Well said. I've noticed a similar progression in myself.

This is the way. Of the left.

It got to -155 before being removed by the mods. I don't understand. The subs side bar says "Please follow the sub's rules and reddiquette". Doesn't reddiquette say not to downvote on-topic comments?!?
